Crystal Structure of E. coli DNA Adenine Methyltransferase in Complex with Indole Aza-SAMCrystal Structure of E. coli DNA Adenine Methyltransferase in Complex with Indole Aza-SAM

Structural highlights 4gon is a 3 chain structure with sequence from Ecoli. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Ligands: Related: 4gbe, 4gol, 4gom, 4goo Gene: b3387, dam, JW3350 (ECOLI) Activity: Site-specific DNA-methyltransferase (adenine-specific), with EC number 2.1.1.72 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [DMA_ECOLI] Methylates DNA within the sequence GATC and protects the DNA from cleavage by the restriction endonuclease MboI. Although it shares sequence specificity with a number of type II restriction endonucleases and methylases, it is thought to act in postreplication mismatch repair rather than as a part of a restriction modification system. May also play a role in DNA replication. See Also DNA adenine methylase
