Abstract excerpt
The site-specific recombinase Intl1, encoded by class 1 integrons, catalyses the integration and excision of gene cassettes by recognizing two classes of sites, the integron-associated attl1 site and the 59-base element (59-be) family of sites that are associated with gene cassettes. Intl1 includes the four conserved amino acids that are characteristic of members of the integrase family, and Intl1 proteins with...
