[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MTH1_HAEPH MTH1_HAEPH]] This methylase recognizes the double-stranded sequence GCGC, causes specific methylation on C-2 on both strands, and protects the DNA from cleavage by the HhaI endonuclease.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==

The crystal structure has been determined at 2.8 A resolution for a chemically-trapped covalent reaction intermediate between the HhaI DNA cytosine-5-methyltransferase, S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, and a duplex 13-mer DNA oligonucleotide containing methylated 5-fluorocytosine at its target. The DNA is located in a cleft between the two domains of the protein and has the characteristic conformation of B-form DNA, except for a disrupted G-C base pair that contains the target cytosine. The cytosine residue has swung completely out of the DNA helix and is positioned in the active site, which itself has undergone a large conformational change. The DNA is contacted from both the major and the minor grooves, but almost all base-specific interactions between the enzyme and the recognition bases occur in the major groove, through two glycine-rich loops from the small domain. The structure suggests how the active nucleophile reaches its target, directly supports the proposed mechanism for cytosine-5 DNA methylation, and illustrates a novel mode of sequence-specific DNA recognition.

HhaI methyltransferase flips its target base out of the DNA helix.,Klimasauskas S, Kumar S, Roberts RJ, Cheng X Cell. 1994 Jan 28;76(2):357-69. PMID:8293469<ref>PMID:8293469</ref>
