Structural highlights 2ih2 is a 6 chain structure with sequence from Thermus aquaticus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.61Å Ligands: , , , Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function MTTA_THEAQ This methylase recognizes the double-stranded sequence TCGA, causes specific methylation on A-4 on both strands and protects the DNA from cleavage by the TaqI endonuclease. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. See Also DNA methyltransferase 3D structures
