Haemophilus influenzae Rf 232, showing the phenomena of restriction and modification, contains an endonuclease that inactivates in vitro the biological activity of DNAs lacking the strain-specific modification. This specific restriction endonuclease has been purified to near homogeneity by a procedure that includes DNA-agarose chromatography. This highly purified enzyme requires ATP and Mg2+ for activity and is stimulated by S-adenosylmethionine. The enzyme seems to cleave DNA at well-defined sites, since it produces a specific pattern of bands upon agarose gel electrophoresis. The enzyme has no ATPase activity. A methylase activity is observed in the course of the endonucleolytic reaction, which probably protects some of the DNA sites from cleavage.

EndoR . NgoII, a class II restriction endonuclease isolated from Neisseria gonorrhoeae, was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. We were able to separate it from another restriction endonuclease of N. gonorrhoeae, NgoI, by phosphocellulose chromatography. NgoII is an isoschizomer of HaeIII, a restriction endonuclease of Haemophilus aegyptius, and was found to recognize the deoxyribonucleic acid nucleotide base sequence GGCC. NgoII was able to digest phage lambda deoxyribonucleic acid over a wide pH range, with optimal activity at pH 8.5. The enzyme has an absolute requirement for Mg2+; maximal enzyme activity was observed at 1 mM Mg2+. The active enzyme has a molecular weight of 65,000 and appears to be composed of six subunits of identical molecular weight (11,000). No methylase activity could be detected in the purified enzyme preparation.

The ATP-dependent DNase from Hemophilus influenzae digests double-stranded linear DNA molecules exonucleolytically while hydrolyzing large amounts of ATP to ADP. Various cross-linked linear duplex DNA molecules are partially resistant to the exonuclease action. Vaccinia DNA, containing natural terminal cross-links (probably in the form of terminal single-stranded loops), is much more slowly degraded than comparable "open-ended" DNA molecules, and ATP is consumed at a proportionately lower rate. It is postulated that the vaccinia DNA molecules undergo slow terminal cleavage by the single strand specific endonuclease activity of the enzyme, and are then rapidly degraded by the double strand exonuclease activity. Phage T7 DNA, containing an average of 100 4',5'8-trimethylpsoralen cross-links/molecule at random internal sites, is digested only to the extent of 2 to 3%. However, ATP hydrolysis continues at a linear rate long after DNA digestion has ceased. A stable enzyme-DNA complex is formed as demonstrated by co-sedimentation of DNA and ATPase activity in sucrose gradients. The hypothesis is advanced that the enzyme digests exonucleolytically to the first cross-link at each end of the DNA molecules where further movement is prevented. The enzyme then remains bound at the cross-links and functions continuously as an ATPase.

The ATP-dependent endonuclease from Hemophilus influenzae is relatively inactive on closed or open DNA rings, yet rapidly hydrolyzes single- or double-chained linear DNA. This enzyme in combination with an exonuclease (exo VII) has been shown to spare various circular DNA molecules including those having single-chain regions of significant length. However, rings containing single-chained regions are broken at a rate depending on the length of these regions. By admixing a linear DNA of alternate radiolabel, a simple assay for DNA rings has been developed. The application of this procedure to the assay of folded rings from Drosophila DNA is demonstrated.

The genomes of the two nondefective adenovirus 2/simian virus 40 (Ad2/SV 40) hybrid viruses, nondefective Ad2/SV 40 hybrid virus 1 (Ad2+ND1) and nondefective hybrid virus 3 (Ad2+ND3), WERE FORMED BY A DELETION OF ABOUT 5% OF Ad2 DNA and insertion of part of the SV40 genome. We have compared the cytoplasmic RNA synthesized during both the early and late stages of lytic infection of human cells by these hybrid viruses to that expressed in Ad2-infected and SV40-infected cells. Separated strands of the six fragments of 32P-labeled Ad2 DNA produced by cleavage with the restriction endonuclease EcoRI (isolated from Escherichia coli) and the four fragments of 32P-labeled SV40 DNA produced by cleavage with both a restriction nuclease isolated from Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Hpa1, and EcoRI were prepared by electrophoresis of denatured DNA in agarose gels. The fraction of each fragment strand expressed as cytoplasmic RNA was determined by annealing fragmented 32P-labeled strands to an excess of cellular RNA extracted from infected cells. The segment of Ad2 DNA deleted from both hybrid virus genomes is transcribed into cytoplasmic mRNA during the early phase of Ad2 infection. Hence, we suggest that Ad2 codes for at least one "early" gene product which is nonessential for virus growth in cell culture. In both early Ad2+ND1 and Ad2+ND3-infected cells, 1,000 bases of Ad2 DNA adjacent to the integrated SV40 sequences are expressed as cytoplasmic RNA but are not similarly expressed in early Ad2-infected cells. The 3' termini of this early hybrid virus RNA maps in the vicinity of 0.18 on the conventional SV40 map and probably terminates at the same position as early lytic SV40 cytoplasmic RNA. Therefore, the base sequence in this region of SV40 DNA specifies the 3' termini of early messenger RNA present in both hybrid virus and SV40-infected cells.

Enzymic digestion of Simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA with Haemophilus aegyptius restriction endonuclease Hae III results in 10 major and eight minor fragments. These were resolved by electrophoresis on graduated polyacrylamide slab gels. All fragments have been characterized with respect to the size relative to the Haemophilus influenzae Rd fragments (Hind). They were ordered on the SV40 DNA map by means of overlap analysis of the double cleavage products derived from sequential digestion of Hind fragments with Hae III endonuclease and Hae fragments with Hind II + III enzyme, as well as by other reciprocal cleavage experiments, including those involving Haemophilus para-influenzae fragments. In this way the 18 Hae III cleavage sites and the 13 Hind sites have been localized on the circular SV40 DNA map.

A restriction endonuclease obtained from Haemophilus gallinarum (hgaI) cleaves polyoma DNA at four specific sites. Using the EcoRI, HindIII, and HpaII endonuclease restriction sites as reference, the four HgaI cleavage sites were mapped at 0.02, 0.14, 0.27, and 0.48 fractional lengths, clockwise, from the single EcoRI cleavage site.

The DNA of human papillomavirus (HPV) obtained from a pool of plantar warts is cleaved by bacillus amyloliquefaciens (BamI) and Haemophilus parainfluenzae (HpaII) restriction endonucleases at one and four specific sites, respectively. These sites were localized on the previously established cleavage map of HPV DNA, using the Hind, HindIII, HpaI, and EcoRI endonuclease restriction sites as reference. The four HpaII sites were mapped, clockwise, at 1.4, 41.1, 44.3, and 52.8% of the genome length from the unique BamI cleavage site taken as point zero. The HpaII site mapped at 1.4% of the genome length was absent in 40 to 50% of the molecules, thus showing a genetic heterogeneity of HPV DNA.
