Comment
This is a large group of enzymes, most of which, with enzymes of similar site specificity listed as EC 3.1.21.3 (type 1 site-specific deoxyribonuclease), EC 3.1.21.4 (type II site-specific deoxyribonuclease) or EC 3.1.21.5 (type III site-specific deoxyribonuclease), form so-called 'restriction-modification systems'. A complete listing of all of these enzymes has been produced by R.J. Roberts and is available on-line at http://rebase.neb.com/rebase/rebase.html.
