CpG underrepresentation and the new bacterial CpG specific DNA methyltransferase M.MpeI
The CpG depleted Mycoplasma penetrans harbors a CpG specific C5 methyltransferase. The aim of this experiment was to confirm the specificity of the methyltransferase in vivo and in vitro. Overall design: Genomic DNA from Mycoplasma penetrans and Escherichia coli genomic DNA that either was or was not methylated in vitro by M.MpeI were subjected to Illumina MiSeq bisulfite sequencing.
