Understanding key features of bacterial restriction-modification systems through quantitative modeling

BACKGROUND: Restriction-modification (R-M) systems are rudimentary bacterial immune systems. The main components include restriction enzyme (R), which cuts specific unmethylated DNA sequences, and the methyltransferase (M), which protects the same DNA sequences. The expression of R-M system componen...
