Notes

[back to top]


In vitro DNA adenine methyltransferase activity has been demonstrated for YhdJ; overexpression of YhdJ leads to protection of chromosomal DNA from NsiI digestion, but DNA from wild type cells is not protected (Broadbent (2007). DNA from a DNA methyltransferase deficient strain (dam-, dcm-, EcoK-) does not react with anti-N6-methylA or anti-N4-methylC antibodies when YhdJ is expressed from the pBR322 Tet promoter; the yhdJ-containing pBR322 derivative was not resistant to a variety of restriction (personal communication: R. Vaisvila, S. Stickel and R.J. Roberts, unpublished results, April, 2006). The Kossykh (2004) report describing yhdJ as ccrM, an adenine methyltransferase, has been retracted.[4]
