1. Klenow Fragment (3´→ 5´ exo-) is not suitable for generating blunt ends because it lacks the 3´→ 5´ exonuclease necessary to remove non-templated 3´ additions.
2. Klenow Fragment (3´→ 5´ exo-) is also active in all four NEBuffers when supplemented with dNTPs.
3. When Klenow Fragment (3´→ 5´ exo-) is used to sequence DNA using the dideoxy method of Sanger et al., 1 unit/5 µl reaction volume is recommended.
