Abstract
The presence of N-6-methyladenine in GATC sequences in DNA of Selenomo nas ruminantium was investigated using sensitive methylation discrimin ating isochizomeric restriction enzymes analysis. Methylated adenine w as detected in 8 out of 18 tested strains belonging to the subsp. lact ilytica of S. ruminantium. No corresponding restriction activity was d etected in three tested strains. No GATC methylation was detected in 3 analysed S, ruminantium subsp. ruminantium strains.
