Abstract excerpt
The NgoII restriction-modification (R-M) system of Neisseria gonorrhoeae recognizes the sequence 5'-GGCC-3'. This system is encoded by two separate genes, dcmB for the methyltransferase (MTase) and dcrB for the restriction endonuclease (ENase). Three strains that vary in their NgoII phenotype were examined. Strain Pgh3-2 produced detectable levels of both enzymes, strain F62 lacked detectable levels of the dcrB...
