Restriction Endonuclease Analysis of Salmonid Mitochondrial DNA
TL;DR: Analysis of mitochondrial DNA from four species of the teleost subfamily Salmoninae using restriction endonucleases suggests a closer phylogenetic relationship between Oncorhynchus tshawytscha and Salmo (Parasalmo) gairdneri than either has with SalMo (Salmo) trutta.

DNA restriction—Modification genes of phage P1 and plasmid p15B: Structure and in vitro transcription
Shigeru Iida,Jürg Meyer,Brigitte Bächi,Margaretha Stålhammar-Carlemalm,Solveig Schrickel,Thomas A. Bickle,Werner Arber +6 more
TL;DR: The EcoP1 and EcoP15 DNA restriction-modification systems are coded by the related P1 prophage and p15B plasmid and the results of transposon mutagenesis, restriction cleavage analysis and in vitro transcription mapping allow the following conclusions to be drawn concerning the structural genes.

Structural homologies among type I restriction-modification systems.
TL;DR: Structural homologies among different restriction systems of Escherichia coli and several Salmonella species have been investigated by immunological methods and by DNA hybridization experiments, showing a strong homology between the E. coli K12 and B restriction‐modification systems.

EcoRI cleavage and methylation of DNAs containing modified pyrimidines in the recogintion sequence.
K L Berkner,William R. Folk +1 more
TL;DR: Different sensitivities of the EcoRI endonuclease and methylase to modifications in the pyrimidine rings of DNA suggest there are significant differences in the manner by which these enzymes recognize and bind to the canonical EcoRI sequence.

Haemophilus influenzae phasevarions have evolved from type III DNA restriction systems into epigenetic regulators of gene expression
Kate L. Fox,Stefanie J. Dowideit,Alice L. Erwin,Yogitha N. Srikhanta,Arnold L. Smith,Michael P. Jennings +5 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that evolution of this type III R-M system in Haemophilus influenzae strain Rd into an epigenetic mechanism for controlling gene expression has, in some strains, resulted in loss of the DNA restriction function.
