Abstract excerpt
The serine recombinase Tn3 resolvase catalyses recombination between two 114 bp res sites, each of which contains binding sites for three resolvase dimers. We have analysed the in vitro properties of resolvase variants with 'activating' mutations, which can catalyse recombination at binding site I of res when the rest of res is absent. Site I x site I recombination promoted by these variants can be as fast as res...
