Sequence permutations in the molecular evolution of DNA methyltransferases

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>DNA methyltransferases (MTases), unlike MTases acting on other substrates, exhibit sequence permutation. Based on the sequential order of the cofactor-binding subdomain, the catalytic subdomain, and the target recognition domain (TRD...
