Effect of N4-cytosine DNA methylation on H. pylori natural transformation. Streptomycin resistant genomic DNA (200 ng) or 1487 bp long linear donor DNA (harboring kanamycin resistance cassette) was used as a donor DNA to transform the H. pylori 26695 (wild-type), R.hpyAIIR), R.hpyAII-M2.hpyAIIR-M2) and R.hpyAII-M1.hpyAII-M2.hpyAIIR-M1-M2) deletion strains. Recombination frequency was expressed as, number of streptomycin or kanamycin resistant colonies per recipient colony-forming unit. (A) Donor DNA carrying point-mutation in rpsL gene (A128G), (B) 1487 bp linear DNA fragment carrying rdxA gene disrupted with kanamycin resistance cassette. Data was represented as mean ± SD values of pooled experiments. P-values were calculated using the Mann–Whitney U test.
