Abstract excerpt
Serine recombinases, which generate double-strand breaks in DNA, must be carefully regulated to ensure that chemically active DNA complexes are assembled correctly. In the Hin-catalyzed site-specific DNA inversion reaction, two inversely oriented recombination sites on the same DNA molecule assemble into a synaptic complex that uniquely generates inversion products. The Fis-bound recombinational enhancer,...
