title: A third DNA-dependent ATPase from Bacillus cereus free of ATP-dependent DNase activity.
abstract: The purification of ATP-dependent DNase from Bacillus cereus led to the isolation and characterization of a third DNA-dependent ATPase. The enzyme called ATPase III has been purified free of nuclease activity. None of the expected ATPases proved to be identical with ATP-dependent DNase-DNA-dependent ATPase. Separation of ATPase I, II and III and a DNase specific for single-stranded DNA from the same source excludes the possibility of ATP-dependent DNase being the action of a single enzyme molecule.
