Abstract excerpt
Bacterial transposon Tn3 has a 38-bp terminal inverted repeat (IR) sequence. The IR sequence has been divided into two domains, A and B, of which domain B is bound by transposase, and domain A is not Here, we defined the two domains more precisely by constructing three IR mutants with a 2-bp subs...
