STRUCTURE OF THE BFII RESTRICTION ENDONUCLEASE
OverviewOverview
Among all restriction endonucleases known to date, BfiI is unique in, cleaving DNA in the absence of metal ions. BfiI represents a different, evolutionary lineage of restriction enzymes, as shown by its crystal, structure at 1.9-A resolution. The protein consists of two structural, domains. The N-terminal catalytic domain is similar to Nuc, an, EDTA-resistant nuclease from the phospholipase D superfamily. The, C-terminal DNA-binding domain of BfiI exhibits a beta-barrel-like, structure very similar to the effector DNA-binding domain of the, Mg(2+)-dependent restriction enzyme EcoRII and to the B3-like DNA-binding, domain of plant transcription factors. BfiI presumably evolved through, domain fusion of a DNA-recognition element to a nonspecific nuclease akin, to Nuc and elaborated a mechanism to limit DNA cleavage to a single, double-strand break near the specific recognition sequence. The crystal, structure suggests that the interdomain linker may act as an autoinhibitor, controlling BfiI catalytic activity in the absence of a specific DNA, sequence. A psi-blast search identified a BfiI homologue in a, Mesorhizobium sp. BNC1 bacteria strain, a plant symbiont isolated from an, EDTA-rich environment.
