Two new restriction endonucleases from Proteus vulgaris


Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Cold Spring Harbor, NY 11724
New England Biolabs Beverly, MA 01915, USA
Received June 25, 1981. Two novel sequence-specific endonucleases have been isolated from Proteus vulqaris, ATCC 13315. PvuI recognizes the sequence:
5' C G A T
C G 3'
3' G C
T A G C 5'
and PvuII recognizes the sequence:
5' C A G
C T G 3'
3' G T C
G A C 5'
and cleave as indicated by the arrow (+). PvuI is an isoschizomer of XorII, RshI, and XniI. No enzyme with the specificity of PvuII has been described previously.
