Substrate specificity of the MUS81-EME2 structure selective endonuclease
MUS81 plays important cellular roles in the restart of stalled replication forks, the resolution of recombination intermediates and in telomere length maintenance. Although the actions of MUS81-EME1 have been extensively investigated, MUS81 is the catalytic subunit of two human structure-selective endonucleases, MUS81-EME1 and MUS81-EME2. Little is presently known about the activities of MUS81-...
متن کاملSpecificity of substrate recognition by the EcoRI restriction endonuclease.
The substrate specificity of the EcoRI restriction endonuclease can be varied in vitro by changing the pH and the ionic environment of the reaction. Phosphodiester bond cleavage occurs at a DNA hexanucleotide sequence d(N-G-A-A-T-T-C-N)/d(N-C-T-T-A-A-G-N) when the ionic strength is high, 100 mM Tris-HCl, 50 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, and the pH is approximately 7.3. Lowering the ionic strength to 25 ...
متن کاملMassively parallel determination and modeling of endonuclease substrate specificity
We describe the identification and characterization of novel homing endonucleases using genome database mining to identify putative target sites, followed by high throughput activity screening in a bacterial selection system. We characterized the substrate specificity and kinetics of these endonucleases by monitoring DNA cleavage events with deep sequencing. The endonuclease specificities revea...
متن کاملSpecificity of esterases. III. Critical concentrations of the substrate.
On the basis of this plot it was found (1) that, with a preparation of hog pancreas as the source of esterase, an apparent deviation from theoretical behavior was the result of the simultaneous action of two enzymes on the substrate. In the present investigation it is found that the curves obtained with horse liver esterase display two rather sharp discontinuities that cannot be ascribed to sim...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of ultraviolet DNA endonuclease (UVDE/Uve1p) from Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
Schizosaccharomyces pombe ultraviolet DNA endonuclease (UVDE or Uve1p) has been shown to cleave 5' to UV light-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and pyrimidine-pyrimidone (6-4) photoproducts (6-4PP). This endonuclease is believed to function in the initial step in an alternative excision repair pathway for the removal of DNA damage caused by exposure to UV light. An active truncated ...
