EheA from Exiguobacterium sp. yc3 is a novel thermostable DNase belonging to HNH endonuclease superfamily.
The HNH endonuclease superfamily usually contains a conserved HNH motif in the sequence, and the second subfamily of it uses N to replace the second H in the HNH motif. A bacterium with extracellular thermostable DNase was isolated and identified as Exiguobacterium sp. yc3. A 20 kDa putative DNase was later purified and the encoding gene of it was amplified and sequenced, the deduced amino acid...
متن کاملType II restriction endonuclease R.KpnI is a member of the HNH nuclease superfamily.
The restriction endonuclease (REase) R.KpnI is an orthodox Type IIP enzyme, which binds to DNA in the absence of metal ions and cleaves the DNA sequence 5'-GGTAC--C-3' in the presence of Mg2+ as shown generating 3' four base overhangs. Bioinformatics analysis reveals that R.KpnI contains a betabetaalpha-Me-finger fold, which is characteristic of many HNH-superfamily endonucleases, including hom...
متن کاملDNase II is a member of the phospholipase D superfamily
MOTIVATION DNase II is an endodeoxyribonuclease involved in apoptosis and essential for the mammalian development. Despite the understanding of biochemical properties of this enzyme, its structure and relationships to other protein families remain unknown. RESULTS Using protein fold-recognition we found that DNase II exhibits a catalytic domain common to the phospholipase D superfamily. Our m...
متن کاملDLAD, a novel mammalian divalent cation-independent endonuclease with homology to DNase II.
In this report, we describe the molecular cloning and characterization of DLAD, a novel mammalian deoxy-ribonuclease homologous to DNase II. The full length cDNA for mouse DLAD has been cloned by polymerase chain reaction. The cDNA contains a 1065 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding a 354 amino acid protein with a calculated molecular mass of 40 767. The predicted protein for DLAD shares 34.4%...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Novel Conus bandanus Conopeptide Belonging to the M-Superfamily Containing Bromotryptophan
A novel conotoxin (conopeptide) was biochemically characterized from the crude venom of the molluscivorous marine snail, Conus bandanus (Hwass in Bruguière, 1792), collected in the south-central coast of Vietnam. The peptide was identified by screening bromotryptophan from chromatographic fractions of the crude venom. Tandem mass spectrometry techniques were used to detect and localize differen...
