S-adenosylmethionine: DNA-cytosine 5-methyltransferase from a Novikoff rat hepatoma cell line

Abstract
Partial purification of DNA methylase from Novikoff rat hepatoma cells is described. Contamination with other proteins persists although the enzyme preparation has a high specific activity and is purified 980-fold over homogenate activity. Evidence suggests, but does not prove, that there may be more than one species of DNA methylase in these cells. The enzyme has two broad pH optima at pH 7.0 and 7.5 and most readily methylates heterologous denatured DNAs although complex reaction kinetics indicate that native DNAs may eventually be methylated to an equal or greater level. The preparation of undermethylated DNA from Novikoff cells is also described. Undermethylated homologous DNA is an 85-fold greater acceptor of methyl groups than fully methylated Novikoff cell DNA. In contrast to other DNA substrates, the enzyme preparation methylates native undermethylated homologous DNA at a 3.5-fold greater than denatured undermethylated homologous DNA.
