Abstract
A restriction endonuclease with a novel site-specificity has been isolated from the Escherichia coli strain RFL31. The nucleotide sequences around a single Eco31I cut on pBR322 DNA and two cuts of lambda DNA have been compared. A common 5'GAGACC 3'CTCTGG sequence occurs near each cleavage site. Precise mapping of the cleavages in both DNA strands places the cuts five nucleotides to the left of the upper sequence and one nucleotide to the left of the lower sequence. This enabled us to deduce the following recognition and cleavage specificity of Eco31I: 5' GGTCTCN decreases 3' CCAGAGN NNNN increases.Entities:
