Abstract excerpt
Site-specific recombination of bacteriophage lambda starts with the formation of higher-order protein--DNA complexes, called 'intasomes', and is followed by a series of steps, including the initial DNA cleavage, top-strand exchange, branch migration and bottom-strand exchange, to produce recombinant products. One of the intasomes formed during excisive recombination (the attL complex) is composed of the...
