Abstract excerpt
The inverted repeats (IRs) of the insertion element IS903 are composed of two functional regions. An inner region, consisting of basepairs 6-18, is the transposase binding site. The outer region (positions 1-3) is not contacted during initial transposase binding, but is essential for efficient transposition. We have examined the interaction of the IR with the transposase by isolating transposase suppressors of IR...
