Abstract
Two restriction endonucleases (ENases) were found by screening 38 stan dard phage strains of Salmonella (S.) Enteritidis. An isoschizomer of SacII ENase that recognizes the sequence 5'-CCGC/GG-3' was identified in S. Enteritidis PT14b, and an isoschizomer of XmaIII ENase (5'-C/GGC CG-3') was found in S. Enteritidis PT16. It is of special interest tha t the recognition specificities of all known ENases in Salmonella, inc luding those of the S. Enteritidis ENases, are very similar to each ot her.
