Enzyme	Recognition site	Supplied buffer(s)	Time saver?	Heat inactivation
AgeI	ACCGGT	Example
PciI	ACATGT	Example
EcoRI		Example
BsrGI	T^GTACvA	NEBuffer 2, BSA	Yes
SacII	CCGCGG	Nebuffer 4	No
NdeI	CATATG
BamHI	GGATCC

Double digests

Software:

Enzyme combination	Double Digest finder buffer recommendation	Experience
AgeI+PciI	NEBuffer 4	Have used NEBuffer 1. Seems to work reasonably well, but may lead to lower CIP activity if dephosphorylating.
BsrGI+BamHI-HF	NEBuffer 4
