Abstract excerpt
The FLP recombinase of the 2 microns plasmid of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a member of the integrase family of site-specific recombinases. Recombination catalyzed by members of this family proceeds via the ordered cleavage and religation of four strands of DNA. Although the amino acid sequences of integrase family members are quite different, each recombinase maintains an absolutely conserved tetrad of amino...
