Description
E.coli RuvC protein is a structurally specific endonuclease which binds specifically to the Holliday structure, an intermediate of recombination, at the late stage of homologous recombination and recombination repair and introduces nicks at the symmetrical points of the Holliday junction, cleaving and resolving the recombinant (1). Its molecular weight is 19kD and forms a dimmer in liquid.
Applications
Western blot for the detection of E. coli RuvC protein x 3,000 dilution (Fig.1)
Other applications have not been tested.
