Abstract: Two GATC specific methylases together with Sau3AI isoschizomeric restriction endonuclease were partially characterized in Mitsuokella multiacida 46/5. This is the first report on the presence of solitary Dam methyltransferase alongside GATC specific restriction-modification system resulting in the unusual two-fold methylation of the GATC motifs.

Mit.su.o.kel'la. N.L. fem. n. Mitsuokella named after Tomotari Mitsuoka, the Japanese bacteriologist who first described the organism. Firmicutes / “Clostridia” / Clostridiales / Veillonellaceae / Mitsuokella Gram‐stain‐negative , obligately anaerobic , non‐spore‐forming , nonmotile rods . Stout rods of regular shape with rounded ends. Fermentative metabolism . Growth is enhanced by glucose or other fermentable carbohydrates. Major end products from glucose fermentation are acetate , lactate and succinate . No copious gas formation from glucose. Gelatinase and catalase absent; amylase present. Indole‐negative. Nitrate is reduced to nitrite. DNA G+C composition is 55.9–58.2 mol% ( T m ). On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, Mitsuokella belongs to the Sporomusa branch of the Clostrium subphylum of the Firmicutes where it is closely related to Selenemonas ruminantium (Lan et al., 2002b; Willems and Collins, 1995b). Type species : Mitsuokella multacida corrig. (Mitsuoka, Terada, Watanabe and Uchida 1974) Shah and Collins 1983, 439 VP (Effective publication: Shah and Collins 1982, 493.).
