Abstract excerpt
For efficient DNA hydrolysis, Type III restriction endonuclease EcoP15I interacts with two inversely oriented recognition sites in an ATP-dependent process. EcoP15I consists of two methylation (Mod) subunits and a single restriction (Res) subunit yielding a multifunctional enzyme complex able to methylate or to hydrolyse DNA. Comprehensive sequence alignments, limited proteolysis and mass spectroscopy suggested...
