Interplay Between Bacteriophages and Restriction-Modification Systems in Enterococci

open access: yesNova Biotechnologica et Chimica, 2014
The complete genomes of Enterococcus faecalis bacteriophages were analyzed for tetranucleotide words avoidance. Very similar tetranucleotide composition was found in all tested genomes with strong underrepresentation of palindromic GATC and GGCC words ...

On the restriction of the Fourier transform to polynomial curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We prove a Fourier restriction theorem on curves parametrised by the mapping P(t) = (P1(t),..., Pn(t)), where each of the P1,..., Pn is a real-valued polynomial and t belongs to an interval on which each of the P1,..., Pn "resembles" a ...

Systematic Analysis of REBASE Identifies Numerous Type I Restriction-Modification Systems with Duplicated, Distinct hsdS Specificity Genes That Can Switch System Specificity by Recombination

open access: yesmSystems, 2020
N6-Adenine DNA methyltransferases associated with some Type I and Type III restriction-modification (R-M) systems are able to undergo phase variation, randomly switching expression ON or OFF by varying the length of locus-encoded simple sequence repeats (

Complete genome assembly and methylome dissection of Methanococcus aeolicus PL15/Hp

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Although restriction-modification systems are found in both Eubacterial and Archaeal kingdoms, comparatively less is known about patterns of DNA methylation and genome defense systems in archaea.

Reassembling a cannon in the DNA defense arsenal: Genetics of StySA, a BREX phage exclusion system in Salmonella lab strains.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2022
Understanding mechanisms that shape horizontal exchange in prokaryotes is a key problem in biology. A major limit on DNA entry is imposed by restriction-modification (RM) processes that depend on the pattern of DNA modification at host-specified sites ...

Adaptative Potential of the Lactococcus Lactis IL594 Strain Encoded in Its 7 Plasmids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The extrachromosomal gene pool plays a significant role both in evolution and in the environmental adaptation of bacteria. The L. lactis subsp. lactis IL594 strain contains seven plasmids, named pIL1 to pIL7, and is the parental strain of the plasmid ...

The extremophile Picrophilus torridus carries a DNA adenine methylase M.PtoI that is part of a Type I restriction-modification system

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
DNA methylation events mediated by orphan methyltransferases modulate various cellular processes like replication, repair and transcription. Bacteria and archaea also harbor DNA methyltransferases that are part of restriction-modification systems, which ...

Impact of target site distribution for Type I restriction enzymes on the evolution of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) populations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A limited number of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones are responsible for MRSA infections worldwide, and those of different lineages carry unique Type I restriction-modification (RM) variants.

Enhanced transformation efficiency of recalcitrant Bacillus cereus and Bacillus weihenstephanensis isolates upon in vitro methylation of plasmid DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Digestion patterns of chromosomal DNAs of Bacillus cereus and Bacillus weihenstephanensis strains suggest that Sau3AI-type restriction modification systems are widely present among the isolates tested.
