Enzymes Buffer Temperature Purpose
EcoRI, XbaI Low 37°C To create a "Front Vector"
EcoRI, SpeI Low 37°C To create a "Front Insert"
SpeI, PstI Medium 37°C To create a "Back Vector"
XbaI, PstI Low 37°C To create a "Back Insert"
EcoRI, PstI Promega® Buffer H 37°C To excise entire insert or validate part size
