Abstract:
The gene (vspIM) encoding VspI methyltransferase (MTase) has previously been cloned and sequenced, and shown to belong to the gamma class of m6-adenine MTases [Degtyarev et al., Nucleic Acids Res. 21 (1993) 2015]. Here it is shown that the MTase modifies the third adenine within the recognition sequence 5'-ATTAAT-3'.
