Bp OLD exhibits metal-dependent nuclease activity. (A) Domain architecture of Bp OLD. Boundaries of the CTR construct is labeled. (BC). Metal-dependent nuclease activity of BpFL (B) and BpCTR (C) on linear λ DNA. ‘λ’ denotes the position of uncut linear DNA. (DE) Metal-dependent nuclease activity of BpFL (D) and BpCTR (E) on supercoiled pUC19 DNA. ‘N’, ‘L’, and ‘S’ denote the positions of ‘nicked’, ‘linearized’, and ‘supercoiled’ DNA respectively. Cartoons of these respective products are illustrated in D next to their label. For B–E, lanes labeled with dashed lines indicate samples with no metal added. DNA degradation was quantified using BioRad Image Lab software as described in the Materials and Methods. Bar graphs represent the average of three independent experiments with error bars representing the standard error of the mean.
