  • Title: Possible regulation of DNA methyltransferase expression by RNA processing in Streptococcus pneumoniae.
    Author: Lacks SA, Greenberg B, Sabelnikov AG.
    Journal: Gene; 1995 May 19; 157(1-2):209-12. PubMed ID: 7541761.
    Abstract:
    Atypical ribosome-binding sites lacking Shine-Dalgarno sequences appear to be used for translation of the DpnM and DpnA DNA methyltransferases of the DpnII restriction system. Preliminary results indicate that the 5'-endpoints of DpnII system mRNAs result from degradation of the original transcript. These tentative findings serve as the basis for a possible regulatory model that would accommodate the DpnII cassette either as a single copy in the chromosome or on a multicopy plasmid.
