Run-off sequencing of nicked products by BtsI nicking variants. The cleavage product of mutants E128F (A) and D388A/E403A/E405A (B) were gel-purified and subjected to Sanger sequencing on both strands. The recognition sequence is bolded and the cleavage site was indicated by arrows. The extra A peak at the end of run-off sequence was added by the template independent terminal transferase activity of Taq DNA polymerase during sequencing. The extra A peak and drop off in peak signal indicate the nicking site (cleaved template).
