AsnI: A novel class II restriction endonuclease from Arthrobacter sp., strain N-CM, recognizing 5′-AT/TAAT-3′

Add time:09/01/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

A new class II restriction endonuclease, AsnI, with a novel sequence specificity was isolated from the Gram-positive eubacterium Arthrobacter species, strain N-CM. AsnI recognizes the unambiguously defined palindromic hexanucleotide consisting of A- and T-residues. The novel enzyme in the presence of Mg2+ cleaves specifically both strands as indicated by the arrows. The staggered cuts generate 5′-protruding ends with single-stranded 5′-TA-3′ dinucleotide extensions. The novel enzyme may be a useful tool for cloning experiments by complementation of the few enzymes such as PstI and PvuI cutting only once in the Ampr-gene of plasmids pBR322 and pBR328.
