    Abstract: [Objective] To characterize uracil-DNA glycosylase from acidophilic and thermophilic Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.[Methods]We cloned udgIV and udgV genes from S.acidocaldarius,expressed the two recombinant UDG proteins in E.coli species BL21 (DE3) Rosetta-pLysS,purified the recombinant UDGs and characterized the removal of dU by UDGs.[Results]We successfully expressed two S.acidocaldarius UDGs and found both UDGs having the activity of dU removal. In comparison to UDGV,UDGIV was more efficient in dU removal,with a 750-foldactivity.[Conclusion]In comparison to UDGV,UDGIV from S. acidocaldarius was a more efficient enzyme responsible for the removal of dU from DNA in vitro.
