Site-dependent cleavage of pBR322 DNA by restriction endonuclease HinfI.
Cleavage of pBR322 DNA I by the restriction endonuclease HinfI is preferentially inhibited at specific HinfI cleavage sites. These sites in pBR322 DNA I have been identified and ordered with respect to the frequency with which they are cleaved. The HinfI site most resistant to cleavage in pBR322 DNA I is unique in that runs of G-C base pairs are immediately adjacent on both sites. Two different...
متن کاملSite-specific cleavage of left-handed DNA in pBR322 by lambda-tris(diphenylphenanthroline)cobalt(III).
The chiral complex tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)cobalt(III), lambda-Co(DiP)3(3+), binds to and, with photoactivation, cleaves left-handed DNA helices, thereby providing a unique molecular probe for local DNA conformation. We have mapped the specific left-handed sites where lambda-Co(DiP)3(3+) cleaves in the plasmids pBR322 and pLP32, which is the derivative of pBR322 containing a Z-for...
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 کاملDNA translocation blockage, a general mechanism of cleavage site selection by type I restriction enzymes.
Type I restriction enzymes bind to a specific DNA sequence and subsequently translocate DNA past the complex to reach a non-specific cleavage site. We have examined several potential blocks to DNA translocation, such as positive supercoiling or a Holliday junction, for their ability to trigger DNA cleavage by type I restriction enzymes. Introduction of positive supercoiling into plasmid DNA did...
متن کاملSite-specific cleavage of single-stranded DNA by a Hemophilus restriction endonuclease.
Single-stranded viral DNA of bacteriophage f1 is cleaved into specific fragments by endo R-HaeIII, a restriction endonuclease isolated from Hemophilus aegyptius. The sites of the single strand cleavage correspond to those of the double strand cleavage. A single-stranded DNA fragment containing only one HaeIII site is also cleaved by this enzyme. This observation suggests that the reaction of si...
