Abstract excerpt
We purified and characterized previously from Podospora anserina mitochondria an endonuclease, active on single-stranded, double-stranded and flap DNA, with RNAse H activity, named P49 according to the major 49 kDa band observed on SDS-PAGE. Edman sequencing allowed us to identify the corresponding gene called nuc49. Here we report the properties of the (His)-tagged NUC49 protein expressed in E. coli. We show...
