چکیده
The purification and characterization of a new restriction endonuclease, Dde 1, from a sulfate-reducing, anaerobic bacterium, Desulfovibrio desulfuricans, Norway, is reported. The enzyme recognizes the sequence (see formula index) and cleaves at the position indicated by the arrows. The enzyme preparation obtained is suitable for restriction mapping an ligation.

Cloning the DdeI restriction-modification system using a two-step method.
DdeI, a Type II restriction-modification system from the gram-negative anaerobic bacterium Desulfovibrio desulfuricans, recognizes the sequence CTNAG. The system has been cloned into E. coli in two steps. First the methylase gene was cloned into pBR322 and a derivative expressing higher levels was constructed. Then the endonuclease gene was located by Southern blot analyses; BamHI fragments lar...

The membrane-bound hydrogenase from the anaerobic sulphate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (Norway strain) has been purified to homogeneity, with an overall 80-fold purification and a specific activity of 70,umol of H2 evolved/min per mg of protein. The hydrogenase had a relative molecular mass of 58000 as determined by gel filtration and was estimated to contain six iron atoms a...
متن کاملAnaerobic oxidation of Hg(0) and methylmercury formation by Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ND132
The transformation of inorganic mercury (Hg) to methylmercury (MeHg) plays a key role in determining the amount of Hg that is bioaccumulated in aquatic food chains. An accurate knowledge of Hg methylation mechanisms is required to predict the conditions that promote MeHg production in aquatic environments. In this study, we conducted experiments to examine the oxidation and methylation of disso...
متن کاملAnaerobic vibrio-like organisms cultured from blood: Desulfovibrio desulfuricans and Succinivibrio species.
Two unusual anaerobic vibrio-like organisms were recovered from blood cultures of two patients. One isolate was identified as Desulfovibrio desulfuricans. It appeared to be the cause of a 24-h episode of fever, chills, and profuse perspiration. This is apparently the first documented report of human infection due to this organism. The second isolate was a Succinivibrio species. It has rarely be...
