What are the similarities between Isoschizomers and Neoschizomers?
Posted April 4, 2024
Answer
Isoschizomers and neoschizomers are two types of restriction enzymes that are predominantly found in prokaryotes where they are a component of the restriction-modification (RM) system found in bacteria and archaea. Both are protein molecules and both cleave DNA into fragments.

Two different isoschizomers of the type-II restriction endonuclease Taq I (T/CGA) within the same Thermus isolate: Tsp32 I, an enzyme with similar heat stability properties to the prototype enzyme Taq I, and Tsp32 II, a hyperthermostable isoschizomer of Taq I
