Identification, expression, and purification of DNA cytosine 5-methyltransferases with short recognition sequences

Abstract Background DNA methyltransferases (MTases) are enzymes that induce methylation, one of the representative epigenetic modifications of DNA, and are also useful tools for analyzing epigenomes. However, regarding DNA cytosine 5-methylation, MTases identified so far have drawbacks in that their...
