Abstract

To obtain recombinant restriction endonuclease (R) and methylase (M) of the EcoRII restriction–modification system, bacterial strains overproducing their functional hexahistidine derivatives were constructed. Active full-length R · EcoRII was produced only in cells that also expressed M · EcoRII from a multicopy plasmid. Recombinant R · EcoRII bound with hybrid DNA · RNA duplexes.
