This enzyme is preferable to either [http://www.neb.com/nebecomm/products/productM0290.asp Calf Intestinal Phosphatase] or Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase because it is more easily heat-inactivated. After phosphatase treatment of a vector, any remaining activity would remove 5' phosphates from the insert in a subsequent ligation reaction, preventing a successful reaction. Thus, it is critical that the phosphatase be inactivated, purified away, or digested with Proteinase K. | This enzyme is preferable to either [http://www.neb.com/nebecomm/products/productM0290.asp Calf Intestinal Phosphatase] or Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase because it is more easily heat-inactivated.
