Taxonomic lineage

Archaea › Euryarchaeota › Methanococci › Methanococcales › Methanocaldococcaceae › Methanocaldococcus

Protein attributes

Sequence length	289 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	This methylase recognizes the double-stranded sequence GATC, causes specific methylation on A-2 on both strands, and protects the DNA from cleavage by the MjaIII endonuclease Potential.
Catalytic activity	S-adenosyl-L-methionine + DNA adenine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + DNA 6-methylaminopurine.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the N(4)/N(6)-methyltransferase family.
