Evaluation of nutritional and physical stress conditions during vegetative growth on conidial production and germination in Ophiocordyceps sinensis.

abstract：:A new type II restriction endonuclease, SshAI, was purified from Salmonella shikmonah TK139 of kangaroo origin. The recognition and cleavage specificity of Ssh AI was determined to be 5'-CC/TNAGG-3', identical to that of SauI from Streptomyces aureofaciens and Bsu36I from Bacillus subtilis. Based on closely related an...
