Evidence of Horizontal Transfer of the EcoO109I Restriction-Modification Gene to Escherichia coli Chromosomal DNA

A DNA fragment carrying the genes coding for EcoO109I endonuclease and EcoO109I methylase, which recognize the nucleotide sequence 5′-(A/G)GGNCC(C/T)-3′, was cloned from the chromosomal DNA of Escherichia coli H709c. The EcoO109I restriction-modification (R-M) system was found to be inserted between...
