Bbs I is a Type IIS restriction endonuclease encoded by the BbsI gene of Brevibacillus laterosporus. FuniCut Series Endonucleases are fast restriction endonucleases that can accurately complete DNA cleavage within 5 to 15 minutes using genetic engineering recombination technology. They are suitable for rapid cleavage of plasmid DNA, PCR products, genomic DNA, etc. FuniCut rapid endonucleases share a common enzyme cleavage buffer, simplifying the enzyme reaction system. In addition, they have good enzyme activity redundancy and can easily handle the enzymatic cleavage of excess substrates or difficult templates.

【Note】：*This system refers to purified PCR products. Unpurified PCR products have a certain ionic strength and the amount of 10×FuniCut Buffer added can be reduced accordingly to 2 μL. If cloning and other experiments are performed in the next step, the PCR product must be purified before enzyme digestion.
2) Mix by gentle pipetting or swirling (do not vortex), then centrifuge briefly to collect the droplets.
3) Incubate at 37°C for 15 min (plasmid), 15-30 min (PCR product) or 30-60 min (genomic DNA).
4) Incubate at 80°C for 20 min to inactivate the enzyme and stop the reaction (optional).
5) If FuniCut Colour Buffer is used for the digestion reaction, the product can be loaded directly onto the electrophoresis.
2. Double or multiple enzyme digestion protocol
1) The dosage of each endonuclease is 1 µL and the reaction system should be expanded accordingly as needed.
2) The total volume of all endonucleases should not exceed 1/10 of the total reaction system.
3) If the optimal reaction temperatures of the selected endonucleases are different, use the enzyme with the lowest optimal temperature for enzyme digestion, then add the enzyme with the highest optimal temperature and incubate at a higher temperature.

Store this enzyme at -20°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve catalytic activity. The product is shipped Dry Ice and remains stable for up to one year from the date of manufacture when stored under recommended conditions. Aliquoting the stock solution into single-use volumes is recommended for enzymes used infrequently to minimize thermal cycling of the bulk stock.
This enzyme is validated for use in Cloning & Assembly applications. It is suitable for use in both standard laboratory research settings and, where applicable, optimized reaction workflows requiring high specificity, sensitivity, or throughput.
One unit (U) is defined as the amount of enzyme required to completely digest 1 µg of lambda DNA (or specified substrate DNA) in 60 min at the recommended incubation temperature in a total reaction volume of 50 µL.
This enzyme is produced as Recombinant (E. coli) and supplied as a Research Use Only (RUO) reagent. Each lot is subjected to activity assay, purity assessment by SDS-PAGE, and functional validation prior to release. A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) are available on request.
Restriction enzyme efficiency depends on buffer composition (NaCl/KCl concentration, pH, Mg²⁺), incubation temperature (typically 37°C), and template quality. Star activity—non-specific cleavage at relaxed recognition sequences—can occur under conditions of excess enzyme, extended incubation, high glycerol concentration, or non-optimal ionic strength. Use of manufacturer-supplied buffers and adherence to recommended enzyme:DNA ratios (typically 1–10 U per µg DNA) minimizes star activity.
