RESTRICTION ENZYMES
By
Muhammad Adnan Qadar
Also termed as Restriction Endonucleases OR
REases OR RE
Functions as Molecular Scissiors/DNA cutters
RESTRICTION/DIGESTION
The process of restricting OR breaking down the
DNA into pieces
RESTRICTION DIGEST
The product (Fragments of Broken DNA)
obtained from restriction
Methyl-Transferase/Methylase OR Mtase
An enzyme which attaches -CH3 group to host
DNA to protect it from REase digestion

TERMS TO KNOW
NOBLE PRIZE
Were
awarded
ACTION OF REases
REases can produce Sticky and Blunt
ends
REases can be Iso-schizo-mers
Only Type II restriction endonucleases are
the are mostly used
Methylated DNA cannot be digested by
Reases
Some REases also have dual nature (i.g.,
Reases
and Mtases)
CHARACTERISTICS OF REase
REases have specific recognition
sequence at which it cuts a DNA
molecule
For example, the RE called PvuI
(isolated from Proteus vulgaris) cuts
DNA only at the hexanucleotide
5卒-CGATCG-3卒
PvuII, cuts at a different
hexanucleotide in this case
5卒-CAGCTG-3卒
Many RE are Isoschizomers (Different
RE but same target sites)
REases cleaves Phosphodiestr bonds of
Nucleotides
SPECIFICITY OF REases
Frequency of Recognition
Sequence
It is calculated
mathematically i.e., a
tetranucleotide appears
every 44=256nt and
Hexanucleotide repeated
every 46=4096nt
Size of restricted DNA
fragment
Depends upon frequency nt
sequence appearance
 Four(four cutters), Five(five cutters), or even longer
nucleotide sequences cutting REases are also available
e.g., Sau3A (from Staphylococcus aureus strain 3A)
recognizes GATC and AlwNI cuts CAGNNNCTG
DEGENERATE RECOGNITION SEQUENCES
 Some REases cut DNA at any one of a family of related
sites, e.g., HinfI recognizes GANTC, so cuts at GAATC,
GATTC, GAGTC, and GACTC.
MECHANISM OF RESTRICTON
Blunt Ends or Flush End cut
Make a simple double-stranded cut in the middle
of the recognition sequence
HindII, PvuII and AluI are examples of blunt end
cutters
Reases Cut at exactly
the same position
Usually by two or four
nucleotides
As bp can stick
together again
So these are called
sticky ends
Sticky Ends or Cohesive Ends
REases with different recognition sequences
may produce the same sticky ends
BamHI (recognition sequence GGATCC) and
BglII (AGATCT) are examplesboth
produce GATC sticky ends
Restriction Endonucleases/Enzymes/PCR/DNA
Measure 2 袖g of DNA in 16 袖g of the sample
Add required REase (BglII) pure in the mixture
Maintain pH 7.4 with Tris-HCl (500mM)
Mg+2 (100mM) and Nacl (500mM) for proper
activity of RE
Add dithiothreitol (DTT) 10mM to stablize and
preventing inactivation of RE
PERFORMING DIGESTION IN LAB
Maintain 37属C for 1h
Then deactivate REase
by exposing it for short
time to 70属C or by
adding EDTA which
binds to Mg+2 of REase
and deactivates its
function
Restriction Endonucleases/Enzymes/PCR/DNA
