A second site-specific restriction endonuclease from Staphylococcus aureus
Laboratory for Physiological Chemistry, State University of Utrecht Utrecht xNational Institute of Public Health P.O. Box 1, Bilthoven, Netherlands
Received February 6, 1978.
A site-specific restriction endonuclease has been isolated from Staphylococcus aureus PS 96. This enzyme, Sau96 I, recognizes the DNA sequence 5'--G'-G-N-C-C--3'3'p--C-CN'-G-G--5' and cleaves as indicated by the arrows. The enzyme cleaves adenovirus type 5 and
DNA many times, SV40 DNA 10 times and ØX174 RF DNA 2 times. Evidence is presented that the enzyme is involved in biological restriction-modification.
