A type IC restriction-modification system in Lactococcus lactis.
Three genes coding for the endonuclease, methylase, and specificity subunits of a type I restriction-modification (R-M) system in the Lactococcus lactis plasmid pIL2614 have been characterized. Plasmid location, sequence homologies, and inactivation studies indicated that this R-M system is most probably of type IC.
