Restriction endonucleases that cleave RNA/DNA heteroduplexes bind dsDNA in A-like conformation

Abstract: Abstract Restriction endonucleases naturally target DNA duplexes. Systematic screening has identified a small minority of these enzymes that can also cleave RNA/DNA heteroduplexes and that may therefore be useful as tools for RNA biochemistry. We have chosen AvaII (G↓GWCC, where W stands for A or T) as a representative of this group of restriction endonucleases for detailed characterization. Here, we report crystal structures of AvaII alone, in specific complex w… Show more

“…H. pylori has been derived from a variety of clinical specimens and identified using a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (Multiplex-PCR). Several virulence genes in H. pylori isolates have been reported, including Vacuolating cytotoxin A ( VacA ) 17 , cytotoxin-associated A ( cagA ) 17 , restriction endonuclease A ( IceA ) 18 , Outer inflammatory protein A ( OipA ) 19 , and blood-group antigen-binding adhesin ( BabA2 ) 19 . These pathogenicity genes may have a role in the progression of H. pylori .…”

“…This needs to be avoided by replacing the type II restriction enzyme with type IIS restriction enzymes. 46,126 mRNA purification. IVT mRNAs are mixed with RNA polymerase and DNA templates after synthesis; thus, it is essential to purify IVT mRNA, including removing immunostimulatory contaminants, free ribonucleotides, short mRNA and DNA templates.…”

“…H. pylori pathogenesis is linked to virulence genes only found in certain groups. Several virulence genes in H. pylori isolates have been reported, including vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) [23], cytotoxin-associated A (CagA) [23], restriction endonuclease A (IceA) [24], outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) [25], and blood-group antigen-binding adhesin (BabA2) [25]. Among the most efficient ways for studying relationships between H. pylori strains from diverse samples is genotyping using the virulence genes (cagA, vacA, babA2, oipA, and iceA) [15].…”
