Translational independence between overlapping genes for a restriction endonuclease and its transcriptional regulator

BACKGROUND: Most type II restriction-modification (RM) systems have two independent enzymes that act on the same DNA sequence: a modification methyltransferase that protects target sites, and a restriction endonuclease that cleaves unmethylated target sites. When RM genes enter a new cell, methylati...
