Methylation of replicating and nonreplicating DNA in the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Methylation of adenine in replicating and nonreplicating DNA of the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila was examined. In growing cells, 87% of the methylation occurred on the newly replicated daughter strand, but methylation was also detectable on the parental strand. Methylation of nonreplicating DNA from starved cells was demonstrated.
