  • Title: Isolation and characterization of the modification methylase M . SinI.
    Author: Karreman C, de Waard A.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1988 Jun; 170(6):2533-6. PubMed ID: 2836360.
    Abstract:
    A sequence-specific modification methylase (M . SinI) was isolated and purified from Escherichia coli harboring a derivative of recombinant plasmid pSI4 (see accompanying manuscript: C. Karreman and A. de Waard, J. Bacteriol. 170:2527-2532, 1988), which contains a Salmonella infantis DNA insert. The enzyme uniquely methylates the internal deoxycytidylate residue in the nucleotide sequence GG(A/T)MeCC, thereby protecting DNA completely against cleavage by restriction endonuclease R . SinI or R . AvaII [GG(A/T)CC], and in part against cleavage by R . Sau96I (GGNCC).
