Two new restriction endonucleases from Proteus vulgaris.

چکیده
Two novel sequence-specific endonucleases have been isolated from Proteus vulgaris, ATCC 13315. PvuI recognizes the sequence: 5' C G A T decrease C G 3' 3' G C increase T A G C 5' and PvuII recognizes the sequence: 5' C A G decrease C T G 3' 3' G T C increase G A C 5' and cleave as indicated by the arrow (decrease). PvuI is an isoschizomer of XorII, RshI, and XniI. No enzyme with the specificity of PvuII has been described previously.

Molecular characterization of the genera Proteus, Morganella, and Providencia by ribotyping.
The so-called Proteus-Providencia group is constituted at present by three genera and 10 species. Several of the recognized species are common opportunistic pathogens for humans and animals. Different methods based on the study of phenotypic characters have been used in the past with variable levels of efficiency for typing some species for epidemiological purposes. We have determined the rRNA ...

Chromosomal DNA from 26 strains of Providencia stuartii isolated mainly in hospitals in the United Kingdom and reference strains of P. stuartii, P. rustigianii, and Proteus vulgaris were digested with the restriction endonucleases EcoRI and HindIII. After electrophoresis in agarose gels, the fragments were subjected to Southern blot hybridization analysis with a biotin-labeled cDNA probe transc...
متن کاملMobility of a restriction-modification system revealed by its genetic contexts in three hosts.
The flow of genes among prokaryotes plays a fundamental role in shaping bacterial evolution, and restriction-modification systems can modulate this flow. However, relatively little is known about the distribution and movement of restriction-modification systems themselves. We have isolated and characterized the genes for restriction-modification systems from two species of Salmonella, S. enteri...
متن کاملDiversity of type II restriction endonucleases that require two DNA recognition sites.
Orthodox Type IIP restriction endonucleases, which are commonly used in molecular biological work, recognize a single palindromic DNA recognition sequence and cleave within or near this sequence. Several new studies have reported on structural and biochemical peculiarities of restriction endonucleases that differ from the orthodox in that they require two copies of a particular DNA recognition ...

Salmonella enterica is considered as one of the major pathogens in public health, worldwide. Diseases caused by Salmonella enterica serovars are especially prevalent in developing countries. It is one of the emerging pathogen in food-borne diseases, which is often found in contaminated chicken eggs. The aim of this study was to apply a PCR–RFLP method using Sau3AI and HhaI restriction endonucle...
