Shigella sonnei 47 cells were found to contain DNA-methylase SsoII which is a modifying component of the system of host specificity of SsoII. The recognition sequence (RS) of methylase SsoII is represented by a five-member palyndromic structure--5'...CCNGG...3'--with a degenerated central nucleotide. Modification of SsoII affords protection of acceptor DNA not only from SsoII type restriction, but also from other restrictases, e. g., Eco RII having an analogous RS but with a less degenerated central nucleotide pair. A simple and rapid procedure for isolation and purification of DNA-methylase ScoII, which employs hydrophobic chromatography on phenyl-Sepharose, has been developed. The enzyme preparation does not contain trace amounts of specific and nonspecific endonucleases and keeps stable on storage in 30% glycerol over a period of one year.

D007525 Isoelectric Focusing Electrophoresis in which a pH gradient is established in a gel medium and proteins migrate until they reach the site (or focus) at which the pH is equal to their isoelectric point. Electrofocusing,Focusing, Isoelectric
D012764 Shigella sonnei A lactose-fermenting bacterium causing dysentery. Bacterium sonnei
D015252 Deoxyribonucleases, Type II Site-Specific Enzyme systems containing a single subunit and requiring only magnesium for endonucleolytic activity. The corresponding modification methylases are separate enzymes. The systems recognize specific short DNA sequences and cleave either within, or at a short specific distance from, the recognition sequence to give specific double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates. Enzymes from different microorganisms with the same specificity are called isoschizomers. EC 3.1.21.4.
