Natural variation of the NgoII restriction-modification system of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Gene - 30 Sept 1993

Gunn J S, Stein D C

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 wer...
