Regulation of the Transposase of Tn4652by the Transposon-Encoded Protein TnpC
R Hõrak, M Kivisaar - Journal of bacteriology, 1999 - Am Soc Microbiol
Transposition is a DNA reorganization reaction potentially deleterious for the host. The
frequency of transposition is limited by the amount of transposase. Therefore, strict …

Transcription from Fusion Promoters Generated during Transposition of Transposon Tn4652 Is Positively Affected by Integration Host Factor in Pseudomonas putida
We have previously shown that both ends of the Tn 3 family transposon Tn 4652 contain
integration host factor (IHF) binding sites and that IHF positively regulates expression of the …

Target Site Selection of Pseudomonas putida Transposon Tn4652
PA Kivistik, M Kivisaar, R Horak - Journal of bacteriology, 2007 - Am Soc Microbiol
We analyzed the target preferences of a Tn 3 family transposon Tn 4652. Alignment of 93
different insertion sites revealed a consensus sequence which resembles that of Tn 3 …

Transposition of Tn1000: in vivo properties
MM Tsai, RY Wong, AT Hoang… - Journal of …, 1987 - Am Soc Microbiol
Transposition mediated by the Tn1000 transposase was investigated by using transposon
variants carrying synthetic or wild-type termini but no intact Tn1000 genes. Transposon …

Characterization of the Tn5 transposase and inhibitor proteins: a model for the inhibition of transposition
NB de la Cruz, MD Weinreich, TW Wiegand… - Journal of …, 1993 - Am Soc Microbiol
Tn5 is a composite transposon consisting of two IS50 sequences in inverted orientation with
respect to a unique, central region encoding several antibiotic resistances. The IS50R …

Specific nicking at the 3′ ends of the terminal inverted repeat sequences in transposon Tn3 by transposase and an E. coli protein ACP
T Maekawa, K Yanagihara, E Ohtsubo - Genes to Cells, 1996 - Wiley Online Library
Background: Tn3, a bacterial transposon, carries tnpA gene encoding transposase which is
essential for its transposition. The transposition of Tn3 has been reproduced in vitro in a cell …

IHF is the limiting host factor in transposition of Pseudomonas putida transposon Tn4652 in stationary phase
Transpositional activity of mobile elements is not constant. Conditional regulation of host
factors involved in transposition may severely change the activity of mobile elements. We …

Tn5 transposase loops DNA in the absence of Tn5 transposon end sequences
Transposases mediate transposition first by binding specific DNA end sequences that define
a transposable element and then by organizing protein and DNA into a highly structured and …
