Microfluidics-Assisted Fluorescence Mapping of DNA Phosphorothioation

Abstract As the key player of a new restriction modification system, DNA phosphorothioate (PT) modification, which swaps oxygen for sulfur on the DNA backbone, protects the bacterial host from foreign DNA invasion. The identification of PT sites helps us understand its physiological defense mechanisms, but accurately quantifying this dynamic modification remains a challenge. Herein, we […]
