Ability of the EcoRII restriction endonuclease to cleave 14-base-pair DNA duplexes with nucleotide substitutions in the recognition site CCA/TGG and in the adjacent base pair has been studied. Modifications leading to a local change in the substrate conformation (rU residue in and outside the recognition site, A.A- or A.C-pairs in the flanking sequence) reduce the rate of hydrolysis, the effect being maximal when the modified base pair is outside the recognition site. No digestion occurs when the internal dC-residue of the recognition site is 5-methylated in one or both strands. Replacement of dT residue in the EcoRII recognition site by dfl5U residue results in a dramatic inhibition of hydrolysis. Km and kcat for the cleavage of 14-base-pair DNA duplex have been determined. The cleavage rate of the dT-containing strand of the recognition site in 1.5 fold higher comparing with the dA-containing strand. The cleavage of both strands of the substrate by EcoRII endonuclease is confirmed to proceed in one enzyme-substrate complex.
