“…However the TRDs of TaqII and TaqIII have significant similarity to the TRDs of the Type ISP enzymes LlaGI and LlaBIII, for which crystal structures have recently been determined and residues making direct DNA contacts have been identified ( 42 ) ( Supplementary data, Figure S6 ). We therefore aligned TaqII, TaqIII and TspGWI with the Type ISP enzymes described by Kulkarni, et al ( 42 ), and find that the TaqII and TaqIII proteins match well with the observed and co-variation-predicted DNA recognition elements in the Type ISP enzymes (Figure 8 ; Supplementary data, Figure S6 ). Note that in this discussion of recognition elements, we present the TaqII/TaqIII strand that contains the adenine which the enzymes methylate, and refer to the base positions as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (and 6), where the fifth position is the methylated adenine, i.e.…”
