    摘要: A genomic DNA library of Thermus filiformis was constructed using pBR322 as a cloning vector. The methylase selection method was used to clone the TfiI methylase gene (tfiIM). A clone carrying an active TfiI methylase was identified. After sequencing the complete TfiI methylase gene and its downstream DNA sequence, a recombinase homolog was found. Because the methylase and its cognate endonuclease gene are located in proximity to each other in a particular restriction-modification system, efforts were made to clone the upstream DNA by inverse PCR. After two rounds of inverse PCR, one open reading frame (ORF1) was found upstream of the TfiI methylase gene. This ORF1, containing a Shine-Dalgarno sequence and a TATA box on the upstream side, was cloned and expressed, and TfiI endonuclease activity was detected in crude cell extracts. It is concluded that ORF1 encodes TfiI restriction endonuclease.

    摘要: A method is described for increasing the activity of restriction endonuclease mutants that have altered binding or cleavage activities. Restriction endonuclease variants can carry one or more amino acid substitutions that change substrate specificity and at the same time decrease the enzyme catalytic activity. A method is described for isolating derivatives of the endonuclease variants by subjecting them to additional rounds of mutagenesis and screening in a dinD::lacZ indicator strain, such that second-site mutations within the nucleotide coding sequence of the endonuclease are obtained that increased the enzyme specific activity.

    摘要: Methods are provided for engineering novel strand-specific nicking endonucleases by means of an in vivo enrichment of a plasmid library containing a randomly mutagenized restriction endonuclease gene. The plasmids contain adjacent to the gene a cleavable or nickable sequence for cleaving or nicking by the endonuclease product of the gene and a second recognition site for a second endonuclease. The plasmid library is used to transform unmodified host cells. Plasmids from the cultured transformed cells may be analyzed by an in vitro assay for nicking and the nicked plasmids pooled and used to transform host cells. The product is then pooled and the single-stranded specificity of the endonuclease is then determined. The product is either cloned after amplification or identified by use of a selectable marker.

    摘要: BsrFI restriction enzyme was purified from Bacillus stearothermophilus to near homogeneity. The protein was sequenced to obtain its N-terminus amino acid sequence. A set of denegerate primers were synthesized based on the aa sequence. The first 18 codons encoding BsrFI restriction endonuclease (bsrFIR) was amplified by PCR and its coding sequence was obtained. The methylase selection method was used to clone BsrFI methylase gene (bsrFIM). Two clones were found to be resistant to BsrFI digstion. The entire insert in one clone was sequenced and the insert encodes the BsrFI methylase (M. BsrFI). In addition, a small truncated open reading frame adjacent to the methylase gene has homology to Cfr10I restriciton endonuclease in a BlastX homology search in Genbank database. BsrFI and Cfr10I are isoschizomer that recognizes and cleaves 5'R CCGGY3'. Two primers were used to amplify the bsrFIR gene, The forward primer is a degenerate primer designed from the N-terminus aa sequence and the reverse primer is the bona fide sequence derived from the BsrFI methylase.sup.+ clone. The bsrFIR gene was amplified by PCR, ligated into a T7 expression vector pET21at and the ligated DNA was transformed into premodified cells ER2566 [pLG339-BsrFIM]. The final expression strain is ER2566 [pLG339-BsrFIM, pET21at-BsrFIR]. Recombinant BsrFI activity was detected in E. coli cell extract. BsrFI is cloned from a thermophile Bacillus stearothermophilus. Thus, BsrFI a thermostable enzyme and it is active at 37.degree. C. to 65.degree. C.

    摘要: Recombinant nicking endonucleases and associated methylases have been obtained and sequenced and their specificity has been defined. A mutant form of the nicking endonuclease has been cloned where the mutation includes deletion of amino acid sequences at the C-terminal end of the protein. The nicking enzymes have been used for a number of purposes including: amplifying DNA from as few cells as can be found in a single bacterial colony in the presence of a strand displacing polymerase; and for removing genomic DNA in a biological preparation where it is deemed to be a contaminant.

    摘要: The present invention relates to recombinant DNA which encodes the NheI restriction endonuclease as well as NheI methyltransferase, expression of NheI restriction endonuclease from E. coli cells containing the recombinant DNA. An internal NdeI site in the nheIR gene was eliminated by a silent mutation. A new NdeI site was engineered at the start codon of nheIR gene. An NdeI-BamHI fragment containing nheIR gene was cloned into a T7 expression vector pAII17 and expressed in a premodified host ER2566 [pACYC-NheIM, pAII17-NheIR2]. The recombinant clone produces approximately 10 million units of NheI per gram of wet cells.
