摘要
The binding of the MboII restriction endonuclease (R . MboII; ENase) to DNA containing its recognition site was investigated using a mobility shift assay. R . MboII forms specific, stable and immunodetectable complexes with its canonical target sequence. The association constant (K-a) of R . MboII was calculated to be 2.8 x 10(9)/M, and is about 10(4)-fold higher than the K-a value for non-specific binding. Based on results obtained after sedimentation of the R . MboII-DNA complex in a glycerol gradient and measurement of the retardation of the complexes in polyacrylamide gels, we conclude that specific binding to the canonical sequence involves a monomer of R . MboII. DNase I footprinting has shown that the enzyme covers 16 nucleotides of DNA on the 5'-GAAGA-3' strand.
