GO TERM SUMMARY
|
Name: |
Type I site-specific deoxyribonuclease activity |
Acc: |
GO:0009035 |
Aspect: |
Molecular Function |
Desc: |
Catalysis of the endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA to give random double-stranded fragments with terminal 5' or 3' protrusions; ATP is simultaneously hydrolyzed. Cleavage is dependent on the presence in the DNA of a specific recognition site. Cleavage may occur hundreds or thousands of base pairs away from the recognition site due to translocation of DNA. |
Synonyms:
- deoxyribonuclease (adenosine triphosphate-hydrolyzing)
- adenosine triphosphate-dependent deoxyribonuclease activity
- Type I restriction enzyme activity
- ATP-dependent DNase activity
- type I site-specific deoxyribonuclease activity
- deoxyribonuclease (ATP- and S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent)
