An efficient method for DNA extraction from Cladosporioid fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We developed an efficient method for DNA extraction from Cladosporioid fungi, which are important fungal plant pathogens. The cell wall of Cladosporioid fungi is often melanized, which makes it difficult to extract DNA from their cells.

Fingerprinting of Bacterial Genomes by Amplification of DNA Fragments Surrounding Rare Restriction Sites

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2001
A method for generating limited representations of total bacterial DNA, without prior knowledge of the DNA sequence, has been developed. This method consists of three steps: digestion with two restriction enzymes, ligation of two oligonucleotide adapters

Alleviation of restriction by DNA condensation and non-specific DNA binding ligands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
During conditions of cell stress, the type I restriction and modification enzymes of bacteria show reduced, but not zero, levels of restriction of unmethylated foreign DNA.

On the DNA cleavage mechanism of Type I restriction enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2005
Although the DNA cleavage mechanism of Type I restriction-modification enzymes has been extensively studied, the mode of cleavage remains elusive. In this work, DNA ends produced by EcoKI, EcoAI and EcoR124I, members of the Type IA, IB and IC families, respectively, have been characterized by cloning and sequencing restriction products from the ...

Enhancement of PCRs by Partial Restriction Digestion of Genomic Templates

open access: yesBioTechniques, 1999
Genomic DNA preparations derived from mammalian cells can often exhibit poor template activity in PCR, particularly when carried out on target sequences present at low copy number. Using genomic DNA bearing SV40 sequences integrated into host chromosomal

Re-evaluating the kinetics of ATP hydrolysis during initiation of DNA sliding by Type III restriction enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
DNA cleavage by the Type III restriction enzymes requires long-range protein communication between recognition sites facilitated by thermally-driven 1D diffusion. This ‘DNA sliding’ is initiated by hydrolysis of multiple ATPs catalysed by a helicase-like

Straightforward Procedure for Laboratory Production of DNA Ladder

open access: yesJournal of Nucleic Acids, 2012
DNA ladder is commonly used to determine the size of DNA fragments by electrophoresis in routine molecular biology laboratories. In this study, we report a new procedure to prepare a DNA ladder that consists of 10 fragments from 100 to 1000 bp.

Structure of Type IIL Restriction-Modification Enzyme MmeI in Complex with DNA Has Implications for Engineering New Specificities. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2016
The creation of restriction enzymes with programmable DNA-binding and -cleavage specificities has long been a goal of modern biology. The recently discovered Type IIL MmeI family of restriction-and-modification (RM) enzymes that possess a shared target ...

Suppression of APOBEC3-mediated restriction of HIV-1 by Vif

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The APOBEC3 restriction factors are a family of deoxycytidine deaminases that are able to suppress replication of viruses with a single-stranded DNA intermediate by inducing mutagenesis and functional inactivation of the virus.

The Hyperthermophilic Restriction-Modification Systems of Thermococcus kodakarensis Protect Genome Integrity

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Thermococcus kodakarensis (T. kodakarensis), a hyperthermophilic, genetically accessible model archaeon, encodes two putative restriction modification (R-M) defense systems, TkoI and TkoII.
