additional information MvaI restriction endonuclease cuts 5'-CC-/-AGG-3'/5'-CC-/-TGG-3' sites. N4-methylation of the inner cytosines, Cm4CAGG/Cm4CTGG, protects the site against MvaI cleavage. MvaI nicks the G-strand of the related sequence (CCGGG/CCCGG, BcnI site) if the inner cytosines are C5-methylated: Cm5C-/-GGG/CCm5CGG. At M.SssI-methylated SmaI sites, of M.SssI DNA methyltransferase, where two oppositely oriented methylated BcnI sites partially overlap, double-nicking leads to double-strand cleavage (CCm5C-/-GGG/CCm5C-/-GGG) generating fragments with blunt ends Kocuria varians ?
