The DNA adenine methyltransferase (dam+) gene of bacteriophage T4 reverses the mutator phenotype of an Escherichia coli dam mutant.
The mutator phenotype of Escherichia coli dam mutants was found to be reversed by introduction of the bacteriophage T4 gene for DNA adenine methyltransferase. This precludes a direct role for the E. coli DNA adenine methyltransferase in mismatch repair, in addition to its role in strand discriminati...
