Stationary Phase Expression, Purification, and Characterization of XorKI, a Restriction Endonuclease from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae
An endonuclease from Xanthomonas oryzae pathovar oryzae KACC 10331, XorKI, was heterologously produced in Escherichia coli by applying the stationary state induction method. The yield was 5.4 mg of XorKI per liter of LB medium. XorKI existed in multiple oligomeric forms as evidenced by gel filtration chromatography. The specific activity of purified XorKI was 323000 units per mg.
Keywords: Xanthomonas; XorKI; restriction endonuclease; stationary state induction

- Protein & Peptide Letters publishes short papers in all important aspects of protein and peptide research, including structural studies, recombinant expression, function, synthesis, enzymology, immunology, molecular modeling, drug design etc. Manuscripts must have a significant element of novelty, timeliness and urgency that merit rapid publication. Reports of crystallisation, and preliminary structure determinations of biologically important proteins are acceptable. Purely theoretical papers are also acceptable provided they provide new insight into the principles of protein/peptide structure and function.
