Cloning and structural characterization of the mcrA locus of Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 1991

Hiom K, Sedgwick S G

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli has DNA restriction systems which are able to recognize and attack modified cytosine residues in the DNA of incoming bacteriophages and plasmids. The locus for the McrA/RglA system of modified cytosine restriction was located near the pin gene of the defective element, e14. Hence, loss of the e14 element through abortive induction after UV irradiation caused a permanent loss of McrA restriction...
