A sequence-specific modification methylase (M.AquI) was isolated and purified from Agmenellum quadruplicatum (Synechococcus PCC 7002). This enzyme uniquely methylates the deoxycytidylate residue in the sequence *CYCGRG indicated by the asterisk. It was shown to protect DNA against cleavage by restriction endonucleases AvaI, SmaI and XhoI, which recognize the sequences CYCGRG, CCCGGG, and CTCGAG, respectively.
