Chimeric restriction endonuclease.
Fok I restriction endonuclease recognizes the nonpalindromic pentadeoxyribonucleotide 5'-GGATG-3'.5'-CATCC-3' in duplex DNA and cleaves 9 and 13 nt away from the recognition site. Recently, we reported the presence of two distinct and separable domains within this enzyme: one for the sequence-specific recognition of DNA (the DNA-binding domain) and the other for the endonuclease activity (the c...
متن کاملA new restriction endonuclease from Citrobacter freundii.
CfrI, a new restriction endonuclease of unique substrate specificity, has been isolated from a Citrobacterfreundii strain. The enzyme recognizes a degenerated sequence PyGGCCPu in double-strand DNA and cleaves it between Py and G residues to yield 5' -protruding tetranucleotide ends GGCC.
متن کاملA restriction endonuclease from Staphylococcus aureus.
A specific endonuclease, Sau 3AI, has been partially purified from Staphylococcus aureus strain 3A by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The enzyme cleaves adenovirus type 5 DNA many times, SV40 DNA eight times but does not cleave double-stranded phi X174 DNA. It recognizes the sequence (see article) and cleaves as indicated by the arrows. Evidence is presented that this enzyme plays a role in the ...
متن کاملRNA aptamer inhibitors of a restriction endonuclease
Restriction endonucleases (REases) recognize and cleave short palindromic DNA sequences, protecting bacterial cells against bacteriophage infection by attacking foreign DNA. We are interested in the potential of folded RNA to mimic DNA, a concept that might be applied to inhibition of DNA-binding proteins. As a model system, we sought RNA aptamers against the REases BamHI, PacI and KpnI using s...
متن کاملDNA modifying enzymes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens: effect of DNA topoisomerase, restriction endonuclease, and unique DNA endonuclease on plasmid and plant DNA.
Extracts from Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain ID135 contain three enzymes that have been characterized and partially purified. The first enzyme, a DNA topoisomerase, appeared to relax only negatively twisted DNA. The second enzyme, Atu I, a type II restriction endonuclease, generated the identical DNA digestion pattern as EcoRII when several DNAs were used. The third enzyme, endonuclease A, sh...
