RESUMO
A novel prototype class-IIS restriction endonuclease, TspGWI, was isolated from the thermophilic bacterium Thermus sp. GW. The recognition sequence and cleavage positions have been established: TspGWI recognizes the non-palindromic 5-bp sequence 5′-ACGGA-3′ and cleaves the DNA 11 and 9 nt downstream in the top and bottom strand, respectively. In addition, an accompanying endonuclease, TspGWII, an isoschizomer of Pst I, was found in Thermus sp. GW cells.
