Abstract excerpt
Triple-base changes were made in each of the five Integrase (Int) arm-type binding sites of bacteriophage lambda. These triple changes, called ten mutants, were compared with single-base changes (hen mutants) for their effects on integrative and excisive recombination. The presence of ten or hen mutations in the P1, P'2, or P'3 sites inhibited integration, but the ten P'3 mutant was 10-fold more defective than...
