Protein assembly and DNA looping by the FokI restriction endonuclease
The FokI restriction endonuclease recognizes an asymmetric DNA sequence and cuts both strands at fixed positions upstream of the site. The sequence is contacted by a single monomer of the protein, but the monomer has only one catalytic centre and forms a dimer to cut both strands. FokI is also known...
