Degradation:
DNA nucleases (DNAse)
RNA nucleases (RNAse)
Nucleases
endonuclease (within ss or
ds fragments)
exonuclease (ends of ss
fragments; direction specific)

Restriction Endonucleases -
three types : I, II and III
Restriction endonucleases are categorized into
three general groups (Types I, II and III) based on:
Composition
Enzyme co-factor requirements
Nature of target sequence
Position of DNA cleavage site relative to target
sequence

Restriction Endonucleases:
Nomenclature
eg. BamH1
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Strain H
First enzyme characterised
eg. HindIII
Haemophilus influenzae Strain D - 3rd enzyme
Named for bacterial genus, species, strain, and type

Endonucleases

of the above restriction enzymes cut DNA?
-There are 4 different bases, so the probability of finding a particular base at one

Classification of Restriction
Endonucleases
4. Isoshizomers
Two subtypes:
eg. Sma1 and Xma1 Different REs can produce compatible ends
Note:
Same target site - same cleavage site
There are some Restriction endonucleases that have different
eg. Aat1 and Stu1 target sites, produce compatible cohesive ends.
BamH1 and Bst1 eg. BamH1, Bgl111, Mbo1, Sau3A1, DpnII, BstY1

2. I unit = 1 unit (U) is the amount if enzyme that catalyses the
reaction of 1 nmol of substrate per minute under standard
conditions.
