Description
This is a large group of enzymes which, together with those now listed as EC 3.1.21.4 (type II site-specific deoxyribonuclease) and EC 3.1.21.5 (type III site-specific deoxyribonuclease), were previously listed separately in sub-subclasses EC 3.1.23 and EC 3.1.24. They have an absolute requirement for ATP (or dATP) and S-adenosyl-L-methionine. They recognize specific short DNA sequences and cleave at sites remote from the recognition sequence. They are multifunctional proteins that also catalyse the reactions of EC 2.1.1.72 [site-specific DNA-methyltransferase (adenine-specific)] and EC 2.1.1.37
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
type I restriction enzyme; deoxyribonuclease (ATP- and S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent); restriction-modification system; deoxyribonuclease (adenosine triphosphate-hydrolyzing); adenosine triphosphate-dependent deoxyribonuclease; ATP-dependent DNase; type 1 site-specific deoxyribonuclease
Reaction
Endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA to give random double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates; ATP is simultaneously hydrolysed
