Module 3: Genome Deletion Overview
Dam methylation
To protect against DNA destruction due to basal levels of restriction enzyme production, we have made use of the native E. coli Dam methylase protection system. This methylates DNA. Therefore, only high levels of restriction enzyme (ie. after thermal triggering) will cleave the DNA.
about the Dam methylation Defense Mechanism
About the ethical implications of live organisms.
