Impacts of <i>Mycoplasma agalactiae</i> restriction-modification systems on pan-epigenome dynamics and genome plasticity
2021-06-21
Abstract excerpt
DNA methylation plays an important role in the biology of bacteria. Often associated with restriction modification (RM) systems, they also provide a defence against foreign DNA. Little is known regarding the methylome of the mycoplasma genus, which encompasses several pathogenic species with small genomes. Here, single molecule real-time (SMRT) and bisulphite sequencing combined with whole-genome analysis identifi...
