Crystal structure of the PvuII restriction endonuclease.
Crystal structures have now been determined for the R.PvuII restriction endonuclease as a protein-DNA complex [Cheng et al., EMBO J. 13 (1994) 3927-3935; this report] and in apo-form [Athanasiadis et al., Nature Struc. Biol. 1 (1994) 469-475; our unpublished result]. The structures indicate how the interaction with DNA might proceed [Riddihough, Nature 370 (1994) 78].
