The IntI-Like Tyrosine Recombinase ofShewanella oneidensisIs Active as an Integron Integrase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2002
ABSTRACTWe have found an integron-like integrase gene and anattIsite inShewanella oneidensisas part of a small chromosomal integron. We have cloned this gene and tested the ability of the integrase to excise cassettes from various integrons. Most cassettes flanked by twoattCsites are readily excised, while cassettes in the “first” position, with ...

The unconventional Xer recombination machinery of Streptococci/Lactococci.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2007
Homologous recombination between circular sister chromosomes during DNA replication in bacteria can generate chromosome dimers that must be resolved into monomers prior to cell division.

The telomere resolvase, TelA, utilizes an underwound pre-cleavage intermediate to promote hairpin telomere formation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
The telomere resolvase, TelA, forms the hairpin telomeres of the linear chromosome of Agrobacterium tumefaciens in a process referred to as telomere resolution.

Single-Molecule Tethered Particle Motion: Stepwise Analyses of Site-Specific DNA Recombination

open access: yesMicromachines, 2018
Tethered particle motion/microscopy (TPM) is a biophysical tool used to analyze changes in the effective length of a polymer, tethered at one end, under changing conditions.

Dual recombinase action in the normal and neoplastic mammary gland epithelium

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We developed a transgenic mouse line that expresses the codon-optimized Flp recombinase under the control of the MMTV promoter in luminal epithelial cells of the mammary gland.

Dissecting the roles of XerC and XerD in Xer site-specific recombination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The tyrosine recombinases XerC and XerD function in the monomerisation of circular dimer replicons in many bacteria. The recombining complex contains two synapsed recombination sites and two molecules each of XerC and XerD. Recombination proceeds through

Fast growth conditions uncouple the final stages of chromosome segregation and cell division in Escherichia coli. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
Homologous recombination between the circular chromosomes of bacteria can generate chromosome dimers. They are resolved by a recombination event at a specific site in the replication terminus of chromosomes, dif, by dedicated tyrosine recombinases.

Tight regulation of the intS gene of the KplE1 prophage: a new paradigm for integrase gene regulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2010
Temperate phages have the ability to maintain their genome in their host, a process called lysogeny. For most, passive replication of the phage genome relies on integration into the host's chromosome and becoming a prophage.

Dynamic state of plasmid genomic architectures resulting from XerC/D-mediated site-specific recombination in Acinetobacter baumannii Rep_3 superfamily resistance plasmids carrying blaOXA-58- and TnaphA6-resistance modules

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The acquisition of blaOXA genes encoding different carbapenem-hydrolyzing class-D β-lactamases (CHDL) represents a main determinant of carbapenem resistance in the nosocomial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii.
