Abstract excerpt
ST0753, the orthologous gene of Type 1 RNase H found in a thermoacidophilic archaeon, Sulfolobus tokodaii, was analyzed. The recombinant ST0753 protein exhibited RNase H activity in both in vivo and in vitro assays. The protein expressed in an RNase H-deficient mutant Escherichia coli strain functioned to suppress the temperature-sensitive phenotype associated with the lack of RNase H. The in vitro...
