EcoRV restriction enzyme molecule C014 / 2113
EcoRV restriction enzyme. Molecular model of the type II restriction enzyme EcoRV (pink and blue) bound to a cleaved section of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, white). Restriction enzymes, also known as restriction endonucleases, recognise specific nucleotide sequences and cut the DNA at these sites. They are found in bacteria and archaea and are though to have evolved as a defence against viral infection. Type II restriction enzymes cut double stranded DNA. EcoRV is found in some strains of Escherichia coli bacteria. This structure is based on X-ray crystallography data

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the EcoRV restriction enzyme molecule C014/2113, a type II restriction enzyme found in certain strains of Escherichia coli bacteria. The molecular model of this pink and blue enzyme is depicted bound to a cleaved section of DNA, represented by the white structure. Restriction enzymes, also known as restriction endonucleases, play a crucial role in genetic defense mechanisms against viral infections. They possess the remarkable ability to recognize specific nucleotide sequences within DNA and precisely cut the double-stranded helix at these sites. This process is essential for various biological applications such as gene cloning and DNA manipulation. The intricate crystallography data used to create this artwork provides an accurate representation of EcoRV's secondary structure and homodimeric nature. Its presence in bacterial cells highlights its significance in microbial biology and bacteriology research. Displayed against a clean white background, this image captures the beauty and complexity of molecular biology while emphasizing the importance of understanding enzymes like EcoRV for advancements in genetics and biochemistry. RAMON ANDRADE 3DCIENCIA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY has masterfully captured both scientific accuracy and artistic appeal with this stunning illustration that will undoubtedly captivate viewers interested in microbiology, genetics, or any field related to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) research.
