RX MEDLINE=89033901; PubMed=3053648; RA Miner Z., Hattman S.; RT "Molecular cloning, sequencing, and mapping of the bacteriophage T2 RT dam gene."; RL J. Bacteriol. 170:5177-5184(1988). RN [2] RP MUTAGENESIS. RX MEDLINE=90045940; PubMed=2510127; DOI=10.1093/nar/17.20.8149; RA Miner Z., Schlagman S.L., Hattman S.; RT "Single amino acid changes that alter the DNA sequence specificity of RT the DNA-[N6-adenine] methyltransferase (Dam) of bacteriophage T4."; RL Nucleic Acids Res. 17:8149-8157(1989). CC -!- FUNCTION: This methylase recognizes the double-stranded sequence CC GATC, causes specific methylation on A-2 on both strands. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + DNA adenine = S- CC adenosyl-L-homocysteine + DNA 6-methylaminopurine. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the N(4)/N(6)-methyltransferase family.
