Effect of CpG methylation on<i>Msp</i>I
The restriction enzyme Msp I is inhibited by the presence of a methyl moiety at the external cytosine of the sequence CCGG, but is generally unaffected by methylation at the int...
5-Methylcytosine in Eukaryotic DNA
A small portion of the cytosine residues in the DNA of higher eukaryotes as well as in that of many lowe eukaryotes if methylated. The resulting 5-methylcytosine residues occur ...
