A new restriction endonuclease Sse9I was isolated from the bacterial strain Sporosarcina sp. 9D. The enzyme belongs to Type II restrictases and recognizes the tetranucleotide sequence 5'-AATT-3'. The enzyme cleaves DNA before the first adenine residue, so it is a true isoschizomer of Tsp509I restrictase. However, unlike the prototype, Sse9I digests DNA at 55 degrees C and loses its activity after 20 min storage at 65 degrees C.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D015265 Site-Specific DNA-Methyltransferase (Adenine-Specific) An enzyme responsible for producing a species-characteristic methylation pattern on adenine residues in a specific short base sequence in the host cell DNA. The enzyme catalyzes the methylation of DNA adenine in the presence of S-adenosyl-L-methionine to form DNA containing 6-methylaminopurine and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine. EC 2.1.1.72.
