Abstract

The isolation and charateriation of a type II restriction endonuclease from Xanthomonas citri IFO 3835 were described. This enzyme (Xci I endonuclease) is an isoschizomer of Sal I endonuclease recognizing 5'-GTCGAC-3' and cleaving at the site indicated by the arrow. Unlike Sal I endonuclease, Xci I endonuclease requries a NaCl concentration of 50mM for its maximum activity.
