DNA + H2O MmeI cuts DNA two turns of the helix away from its asymmetric recognition sequence, 5'-TCCRACN20/N18-3', MmeI modifies only the adenine in the top strand, 5'-TCCRAC-3', MmeI endonuclease activity is blocked by this top strand adenine methylation and is unaffected by methylation of the adenine in the complementary strand, 5'-GTYGGA-3', MmeI methylates its recognition site following DNA cleavage Methylophilus methylotrophus double-stranded DNA fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates
