Nuclease assay to test for inhibition of EcoKI by ArdB proteins. Lane 1, undigested DNA; lane 2, EcoKI digested DNA; lane 3, plus ocr; lane 4, plus Orf18 ArdA; lane 5, plus ArdBYAF; lane 6, plus ArdBYFJ; lane 7, plus KlcA136; lane 8, plus ArdBCFT; lane M, DNA ladder with sizes in kb. Plasmid DNA used was non-methylated pBRsk1. Ratio of the anti-restriction proteins (monomers) to EcoKI was 20:1. In each case the reaction mixture minus DNA was made up and incubated for 2 min at room temperature. The reaction was then initiated by adding DNA. Digestion was carried out for 8 min at 37°C before quenching at 68°C for 10 min. CC, closed circular plasmid; L, linear plasmid; OC, open circular plasmid.
