Abstract excerpt
The gene encoding RNase HIII from the thermophilic bacterium Bacillus stearothermophilus was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and the recombinant protein (Bst-RNase HIII) was purified and biochemically characterized. Bst-RNase HIII is a monomeric protein with 310 amino acid residues, and shows an amino acid sequence identity of 47.1% with B. subtilis RNase HIII (Bsu-RNase HIII). The enzymatic...
