Integron integrases possess a unique additional domain necessary for activity.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 2001

Messier N, Roy P H

Abstract excerpt

Integrons are genetic elements capable of integrating genes by a site-specific recombination system catalyzed by an integrase. Integron integrases are members of the tyrosine recombinase family and possess the four invariant residues (RHRY) and conserved motifs (boxes I and II and patches I, II, and III). An alignment of integron integrases compared to other tyrosine recombinases shows an additional group of...
