Abstract

A new enzyme Bpu10I was isolated from Bacillus pumilus. This enzyme is not an isoschizomer of any known restriction endonucleases. The search of possible recognition sequences was carried out in sequences ABCNiDEF (i = 0.6) on substrate DNA lambda CI857, T7, pBR322. The recognition sequence and cleavage sites of restriction endonuclease Bpu10I have been determined as CCTNAGC. GGANTCG
