ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.72

Accepted Name
Site-specific DNA-methyltransferase (adenine-specific).
Alternative Name(s)
Modification methylase.
N-6 adenine-specific DNA methylase.
Restriction-modification system.
Reaction catalysed
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + adenine in DNA <=> S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N-6-methyladenine in DNA
Comment(s)
  • This is a large group of enzymes, most of which form so-called 'restriction-modification systems', with nucleases that possess similar site specificity (the nucleases are listed as either EC 3.1.21.3, EC 3.1.21.4 and EC 3.1.21.5).
  • See the REBASE database for a complete list of these enzymes: http://rebase.neb.com/rebase/
