CC -!- FUNCTION: Methyltransferase that methylates adenine residues in CC the dsDNA sequence GATC. May prevent degradation of viral DNA by CC the host restriction-modification antiviral defense system. CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P04392}. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + adenine in DNA = S- CC adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N-6-methyladenine in DNA. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P04392}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the N(4)/N(6)-methyltransferase family. CC {ECO:0000305}.
