A survey of Type III restriction-modification systems reveals numerous, novel epigenetic regulators controlling phase-variable regulons; phasevarions

Many bacteria utilize simple DNA sequence repeats as a mechanism to randomly switch genes on and off. This process is called phase variation. Several phase-variable N(6)-adenine DNA-methyltransferases from Type III restriction-modification systems have been reported in bacterial pathogens. Random sw...
