Host control restriction modification is mainly seen in micro organisms which helps them to protect themselves from invasion of virus. is it possible to induce same modificaton in higher organisms to protect viral infections?
Is there any evolutionary link between the host controlled restriction modification in bacteria (caused by methylation of bacterial sequences to protect viral entry) and methylation of nucleic...
