Cofactor Requirement of HpyAV Restriction Endonuclease
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori is the etiologic agent of common gastritis and a risk factor for gastric cancer. It is also one of the richest sources of Type II restriction-modification (R-M) systems in microorganisms. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We have cloned, expressed and purified a new restriction endonuclease HpyAV from H. pylori strain 26695. We determined the HpyAV DNA recognition sequence and...
متن کاملChimeric restriction endonuclease.
Fok I restriction endonuclease recognizes the nonpalindromic pentadeoxyribonucleotide 5'-GGATG-3'.5'-CATCC-3' in duplex DNA and cleaves 9 and 13 nt away from the recognition site. Recently, we reported the presence of two distinct and separable domains within this enzyme: one for the sequence-specific recognition of DNA (the DNA-binding domain) and the other for the endonuclease activity (the c...
متن کاملRestriction glycosylases: involvement of endonuclease activities in the restriction process
All restriction enzymes examined are phosphodiesterases generating 3'-OH and 5'-P ends, but one restriction enzyme (restriction glycosylase) excises unmethylated bases from its recognition sequence. Whether its restriction activity involves endonucleolytic cleavage remains unclear. One report on this enzyme, R.PabI from a hyperthermophile, ascribed the breakage to high temperature while another...
متن کاملIsolation and identification of restriction endonuclease BsiSI.
BseBI, an isoschizomer of BstNI (1) has been purified from Bacillus stearothermopilus species. BseBI recognises the sequence 5'...CCWGG...3' (W=A or T) and cleaves between C and W. The enzyme was purified using the following Chromatographic steps: 1. Blue -Sepharose F3GA, 2. Heparin -Sepharose, 3. DEAE-Sepharose. The enzyme was free of contaminating nuclease activity. After 5-fold overdigestion...
متن کاملRestriction endonuclease analysis of Aspergillus fumigatus DNA.
AIMS To develop a genome based DNA fingerprinting system for Aspergillus fumigatus mould. METHODS DNA was extracted from 21 isolates obtained from eight patients with an aspergilloma. This was with a freeze-dried mycelial extract fragmented in liquid nitrogen. DNA was subsequently purified by phenol-chloroform extraction followed by ultracentrifugation on a caesium chloride gradient. The DNA ...
