Abstract excerpt
Endonuclease III (EndoIII), which is ubiquitous in bacteria, Archaea and eukaryotes, plays an important role in excising thymine glycol (Tg) from DNA. Herein, we present evidence that an EndoIII from the hyperthermophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus islandicus REY15A (Sis-EndoIII) is capable of removing Tg from DNA at high temperature. Biochemical data show that the optimal temperature and pH of Sis-EndoIII are...
