Medical Definition of Site-specific DNA methyltransferase (cytosine-specific)

1. An enzyme responsible for producing a species-characteristic methylation pattern on cytosine residues in a specific short base sequence in the host cell's DNA. The enzyme catalyses the methylation of DNA cytosine in the presence of s-adenosyl-l-methionine to form s-adenosyl-l-homocysteine and DNA containing 5-methylcytosine. Registry number: EC 2.1.1.73 (12 Dec 1998)
