Abstract excerpt
The beta recombinase encoded by the streptococcal plasmid pSM19035, which shows 28 to 34% identity with DNA resolvases and DNA invertases, can catalyze formation of deletions or inversions between properly oriented target sites. We have constructed a number of site-directed mutations at residues that are conserved between the beta protein and other DNA recombinases of the resolvase/invertase family. The analysis...
