Abstract excerpt
The tyrosine family site-specific recombinases, in contrast to the related type I topoisomerases, which act as monomers on a single DNA molecule, rely on multi-protein complexes to synapse partner DNAs and coordinate two sequential strand exchanges involving four nicking-closing reactions. Here, we analyze three mutants of the catalytic domain of lambda integrase (Int), A241V, I353M and W350ter that are defective...
