Site Specific recombinases

(see more experiment detail)










Name: L5, Host: Mycobacterium smegmatis





Name: R4, Host: Streptomyces

  • Action: tyrosine integrase
  • Structure:

length:: 469 aa crystal structure is unknown.

  • Target sequence: attB:: has two inverted repeated sequence (core-type) flanking an overlap region .

attP:: has core-type sites and overlap region, without an arm-type site. Minimal attB and attP site is <56 bps.

  • Excision:

Excisionase has not yet been found.

  • Usage:

Integration works in mammalian cell.



Name: TP901, Host: Lactococcus lactis

  • Action: tyrosine integrase
  • Structure:

length:: 485 aa. crystal structure is unknown.

  • Target sequence: attB:: has two inverted repeated sequence (core-type) flanking an overlap region.

attP:: has core-type sites and overlap region, without an arm-type site. Minimal attB and attP site is <56 bps

  • Mechanism:
  • Excision: Excisionase has already been indentified.
  • Usage:

Integration works in E.coli, mammalian cell and in vitro.

questions/notes

  • play with bacteriophage and microbial genome database, look for recombinase genes
  • look at Tn4451 mechanism for boosting up integration, Lyras and Rood 2000
