BisCat DNA
Our NEW BisCat DNA decatenation substrate consists of two supercoiled, singly-linked minicircles of 2.3 and 2.6 kb. Type II topoisomerases can decatenate the substrate to produce two supercoiled minicircle products.
Supercoiled BisCat substrate Supercoiled 2.3 + 2.6 kb minicircles Relaxed minicircles

BisCat DNA is produced using a propriety in-house method and is supplied in TE Storage Buffer at a concentration of 200 ng/µL.
Shipped on dry ice or frozen gel packs. Store BisCat DNA at -20 °C. Stable for at least 12 months.
