Abstract
The DNA of certain species of halophilic and methanogenic archaebacteria is dam methylated, as shown by restriction endonuclease sensitivities. The Dam+ phenotype appears to be confined to particular taxonomic groupings defined by DNA:rRNA hybridization or 16S RNA oligonucleotide cataloguing.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
