Abstract excerpt
We have carried out an analysis of the Escherichia coli K-12 mcrBC locus in order to (1) elucidate its genetic organization, (2) to identify the proteins encoded by this region, and (3) to characterize their involvement in the restriction of DNA containing methylated cytosine residues. In vitro e...
