Restriction endonuclease RalF40I was purified from cell-free extracts of the rumen cellulolytic bacterium Ruminococcus albus F-40 by heparin-Sepharose chromatography. The preparation was active only on DNA substrates that were not Dam-methylated. RalF40I recognizes the 4-bp palindrome. 5'-/GATC-3', and cleaves DNA at the 5' side of G in the sequence, producing 5' tetranucleotide protruding ends. RalF40I is a class II restriction endonuclease and an isoschizomer of MboI and DpnII.
