EcoRV catalysis with a pre-bent substrate

AIP Advances, 2015
Enzymes are deformable molecules which often adapt their conformation to the substrate’s geometry. In the case of restriction enzymes acting on DNA, the substrate (DNA) is deformable also.

Machines on Genes: Enzymes that Make, Break and Move DNA and RNA [PDF]

, 2010
As the vital information repositories of the cell, the nucleic acids DNA and RNA pose many challenges as enzyme substrates. To produce, maintain and repair DNA and RNA, and to extract the genetic information that they encode, a battery of remarkable ...

Cytosine-to-Uracil Deamination by SssI DNA Methyltransferase [PDF]

, 2013
The prokaryotic DNA(cytosine-5)methyltransferase M.SssI shares the specificity of eukaryotic DNA methyltransferases (CG) and is an important model and experimental tool in the study of eukaryotic DNA methylation.

A novel zinc-finger nuclease platform with a sequence-specific cleavage module [PDF]

, 2011
Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) typically consist of three to four zinc fingers (ZFs) and the non-specific DNA-cleavage domain of the restriction endonuclease FokI.
