Abstract
Abstract Restriction–modification systems allow bacterial cells to distinguish between their own DNA and any foreign DNA entering the cell, and to destroy the latter. They operate through two enzyme activities: a restriction endonuclease that cleaves the foreign DNA, and a modification methyltransferase that protects the host DNA.
