Site-specific DNA-methyltransferase (adenine-specific) (EC 2.1.1.72, modification methylase, restriction-modification system) is an enzyme.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- S-adenosyl-L-methionine + DNA adenine S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + DNA 6-methylaminopurine
This is a large group of enzymes.[4]
