Substrates and Products (Substrate)

Substrates Comment Substrates Organism Products Comment (Products) Rev. Reac.
additional information cleavage generally depends on ratio of enzyme to cleavage sites, in presence of S-adenosyl-L-methionine, substrates with two cleavage sites in inverted repeats are susceptible, in absence of S-adenosyl-L-methionine, presence of Na+ leads to cleavage only in substrates with two sites in inverted repeats, presence of K+ leads to cleavage of all substrates prophage P1 ?

Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
S-adenosyl-L-methionine allosteric activator and specificity factor that ensures that cleavage only occurs when two endonucleases bind two recognition sites in a designated orientation prophage P1
