Gated rotation mechanism of site-specific recombination by ϕC31 integrase.
Integrases, such as that of the Streptomyces temperate bacteriophage ϕC31, promote site-specific recombination between DNA sequences in the bacteriophage and bacterial genomes to integrate or excise the phage DNA. ϕC31 integrase belongs to the serine recombinase family, a large group of structurally related enzymes with diverse biological functions. It has been proposed that serine integrases u...
متن کاملUtilization of Site-Specific Recombination in Biopharmaceutical Production
Mammalian expression systems, due to their capacity in post-translational modification, are preferred systems for biopharmaceutical protein production. Several recombinant protein systems have been introduced to the market, most of which are under clinical development. In spite of significant improvements such as cell line engineering, introducing novel expression methods, gene silencing and pr...
متن کاملphiC31 Integrase-Mediated Site-Specific Recombination in Barley
The Streptomyces phage phiC31 integrase was tested for its feasibility in excising transgenes from the barley genome through site-specific recombination. We produced transgenic barley plants expressing an active phiC31 integrase and crossed them with transgenic barley plants carrying a target locus for recombination. The target sequence involves a reporter gene encoding green fluorescent protei...
متن کاملThe mechanism of phage lambda site-specific recombination: site-specific breakage of DNA by Int topoisomerase.
We demonstrate that the topoisomerase activity of bacteriophage lambda Int protein introduces single-strand breaks into duplex DNA at specific sites. Strand breakage is accompanied by the covalent linkage of Int to DNA. The linkage connects a residue in Int to the 3' phosphate of DNA at the site of breakage; the other breakage product has a 5' OH terminus. Int is the first procaryotic topoisome...
متن کاملSite-specific recombination in human cells catalyzed by the wild-type integrase protein of coliphage HK022.
The activity of the Integrase (Int) protein encoded by coliphage HK022 was tested in a human cell culture. Plasmids were constructed as substrates that carry the sites of the integration reaction (attP and attB) or the sites of excision (attL and attR). The site-specific recombination reactions were monitored in cis and in trans configurations by the expression of the green fluorescent protein ...
