Relaxed circular SV40 DNA as cleavage intermediate of two restriction endonucleases.
We have determined the mode of cleavage of superhelical SV40 DNA (Form I) by restriction endonucleases EcoRI and HpaII at 37 degrees C. By analysis with agarose gel electrophoresis and direct examination with dark field electron microscopy, we found that a large amount of the single-nicked circular DNA (Form II) was produced before the linear SV40 DNA (Form III) appeared. Thus, both restriction...
متن کاملBlock of cleavage of ultraviolet-irradiated DNA with restriction endonucleases.
pBR322/Ultraviolet irradiation/Restriction endonuclease/Pyrimidine dimer Plasmid pBR322 DNA was irradiated with ultraviolet light at 254 nm and digested with various restric tion endonucleases. Analyses of the products suggested that the pyrimidine dimers which would have been formed just across the cutting site (Acc I), at the opposite position of the cutting site (Hind III, Eco RI, Bam HI), a...
متن کاملTension-dependent DNA cleavage by restriction endonucleases: two-site enzymes are "switched off" at low force.
DNA looping occurs in many important protein-DNA interactions, including those regulating replication, transcription, and recombination. Recent theoretical studies predict that tension of only a few piconewtons acting on DNA would almost completely inhibit DNA looping. Here, we study restriction endonucleases that require interaction at two separated sites for efficient cleavage. Using optical ...
متن کاملHeterogeneity in sensitivity to cleavage by the restriction endonucleases ECORI and HindIII of circular kinetoplast DNA molecules of Crithidia acanthocephali
Kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) of the protozoan Crithidia acanthocephali consists mainly of an association of approximately 27,000 covalently closed, 0.8-micron (1.58 X 10(6) daltons) circular molecules apparently held together in a particular structural configuration by topological interlocking. The sensitivities of circular kDNA molecules to the restriction endonucleases EcoRI and HindIII have been s...
متن کاملThe mapping and ordering of fragments of SV40 DNA produced by restriction endonucleases.
SV40 DNA is cleaved by the Eco RII and Hae restriction endonucleases to give rise to two different sets of 16 fragments each. These fragments have been ordered by analysis of the products of redigestion of one set of fragments with another restriction enzyme. The cleavage sites have been precisely mapped based on length measurements of the products of each cleavage. This provides a convenient g...
