A specific type II restriction endonuclease T.Smu451I has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from the frozen cells of soil bacterium Sphingobacterium multivorum 451 (formerly Flavobacterium multivorum 451), using ultrasonic grinding, nucleic acid removal by streptomycin sulfate, protein precipitation by ammonium sulfate and phosphocellulose P-11, DEAE-Cellulose DE-52, Hepharin-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography, and elucidated several characteristics of T.Smu451I. The molecular weight of the enzyme determined by gel filtration and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was calculated to be 45,000 ± 2000 D (dimer) and 23,000 ± 1000 D (monomer), respectively. The isoelectric point (pI) of T.Smu451I is 5.4. T.Smu451I recognizes pentanucleotide palindromic sequences 5'-GGNC↓C-3' and cleaves between C and C in position shown by arrow to produce 3'-cohesive terminus of trinucleotide. Therefore, T.Smu451I is a neoschizomer of T.AsuI.
