Conserved motif VIII of murine DNA methyltransferase Dnmt3a is essential for methylation activity

BACKGROUND: Dnmt3a is a DNA methyltransferase that establishes de novo DNA methylation in mammals. The structure of the Dnmt3a C-terminal domain is similar to the bacterial M. HhaI enzyme, a well-studied prokaryotic DNA methyltransferase. No X-ray structure is available for the complex of Dnmt3a wit...
