HindIII
Sign in to saveHindIII (pronounced "Hin D Three") is a type II site-specific deoxyribonuclease restriction enzyme isolated from Haemophilus influenzae that cleaves the DNA palindromic sequence AAGCTT in the presence of the cofactor Mg2+ via hydrolysis. thumb|HindIII restrictions process results in formation of overhanging palindromic sticky ends. The cleavage of this sequence between the AA's results in 5' overhangs on the DNA called sticky ends:
