A nomenclature for restriction enzymes, DNA methyltransferases, homing endonucleases and their genes

Richard J. Roberts, +46 more
TL;DR: In this article, a nomenclature for restriction endonucleases, DNA methyltransferases, homing endon nucleases and related genes and gene products is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Restriction and Modification Systems

TL;DR: The history and present situation of R-M, as well as other aspects of human evolution, are reviewed in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI

The DNA (cytosine-5) methyltransferases

TL;DR: The reaction pathway has suddenly become more complicated because of the base-flipping and much remains to be learned about the DNA recognition elements in the family members for which structural information is not yet available.
Journal ArticleDOI

Escherichia coli K-12 restricts DNA containing 5-methylcytosine

TL;DR: It is observed that plasmids containing certain cloned modification methylase genes of type II restriction-modification systems cannot be transformed into many laboratory strains of Escherichia coli K-12, and DNA containing 5-methylcytosine is biologically restricted by these strains, while DNA containing 6-methyladenine is not.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of the contributions of 1D and 3D pathways to the translocation of a protein along DNA.

TL;DR: A strategy was developed to analyze protein motion between DNA sites and reveals whether the protein maintains contact with the DNA as it transfers from one site to another by sliding or whether it loses contact by a dissociation/reassociation step.
