Restriction and modification enzymes and their recognition sequences

Recognition sequences of restriction endonucleases and methylases--a review.

Specificity of restriction endonucleases and methylases--a review.

Host specific restriction was detected in 13 Bacillus strains, when 63 strains of Bacillus subtilis and 15 other Bacillus strains were tested with phage phi 105C. These 13 strains were classified into 8 groups (M,H,C,N,E,F,G,P) by the type of restriction. M-type strains (B. subtilis Marburg 168, its derivatives, and two other strains) showed relatively weak restriction, restricting phi 105C from other groups of Bacillus by ratios of 10(-1) to 10(-3). Strains of groups H,C,N,E,F,G, and P restricted phi 105C from other groups by ratios of 10(-2) to 10(-8). It was confirmed with some of the strains that type-specific modification was endowed only by the last host. Furthermore, we isolated one restriction deficient mutant of B. subtilis Marburg 168-YS11, which had also lost its modification phenotype.

Restriction and modification in Bacillus species: genetic transformation of bacteria with DNA from different species, part I.

BamHI, a Type II restriction modification system from Bacillus amyloliquefaciensH recognizes the sequence GGATCC. The methylase and endonuclease genes have been cloned into E. coli in separate steps; the clone is able to restrict unmodified phage. Although within the clone the methylase and endonuclease genes are present on the same pACYC184 vector, the system can be maintained in E. coli only with an additional copy of the methylase gene present on a separate vector. The initial selection for BamHI methylase activity also yielded a second BamHI methylase gene which is not homologous in DNA sequence and hybridizes to different genomic restriction fragments than does the endonuclease-linked methylase gene. Finally, the interaction of the BamHI system with the E. coli Dam and the Mcr A and B functions, have been studied and are reported here.
