Cloning the BamHI restriction modification system.
BamHI, a Type II restriction modification system from Bacillus amyloliquefaciensH recognizes the sequence GGATCC. The methylase and endonuclease genes have been cloned into E. coli in separate steps; the clone is able to restrict unmodified phage. Although within the clone the methylase and endonuclease genes are present on the same pACYC184 vector, the system can be maintained in E. coli only ...
متن کاملRestriction and modification in Bacillus subtilis: sequence specificities of restriction/modification systems BsuM, BsuE, and BsuF.
The sequence specificities of three Bacillus subtilis restriction/modification systems were established: (i) BsuM (CTCGAG), an isoschizomer to XhoI; (ii) BsuE (CGCG), an isoschizomer to FnuDII; and (iii) BsuF (CCGG), an isoschizomer to MspI, HpaII. The BsuM modification enzyme methylates the 3' cytosine of the recognition sequence. The BsuF modification enzyme methylates the 5' cytosine of the ...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of the MboII restriction-modification system.
The two genes encoding the class IIS restriction-modification system MboII from Moraxella bovis were cloned separately in two compatible plasmids and expressed in E. coli RR1 delta M15. The nucleotide sequences of the MboII endonuclease (R.MboII) and methylase (M.MboII) genes were determined and the putative start codon of R.MboII was confirmed by amino acid sequence analysis. The mboIIR gene s...
متن کاملCloning and expression of the BalI restriction-modification system.
BalI, a type II restriction-modification (R-M) system from the bacterium, Brevibacterium albidum, recognizes the DNA sequence 5'-TGGCCA-3'. We cloned the genes encoding the BalI restriction endonuclease and methyltransferase and expressed them in Escherichia coli. The two genes were aligned tail-to-tail and their termination codons overlapped. BalI restriction endonuclease and methyltransferase...
متن کاملThe other face of restriction: modification-dependent enzymes
The 1952 observation of host-induced non-hereditary variation in bacteriophages by Salvador Luria and Mary Human led to the discovery in the 1960s of modifying enzymes that glucosylate hydroxymethylcytosine in T-even phages and of genes encoding corresponding host activities that restrict non-glucosylated phage DNA: rglA and rglB (restricts glucoseless phage). In the 1980's, appreciation of the...
