P08956 AND P08957 AND P05719 |
P08956: subunit R, P08957: subunit M, P05719: subunit S. M and S subunits together form a methyltransferase that methylates two adenine residues in complementary strands of a bipartite DNA recognition sequence. In the presence of the R subunit the complex can also act as an endonuclease |
