Orientation of IS50 transposase gene and IS50 transposition.
Reversal of transposase gene orientation with respect to the nonidentical ends of IS50 strongly decreased IS50 transposition in both Dam- and Dam+ hosts. In either orientation, IS50 transposase expression was unaffected. These effects were independent of the surrounding DNA context. This shows that the efficiency of IS50 transposition is dependent on transposase gene orientation. The transposit...
متن کاملComparative sequence analysis of IS50/Tn5 transposase.
Comparative sequence analysis of IS50 transposase-related protein sequences in conjunction with known structural, biochemical, and genetic data was used to determine domains and residues that play key roles in IS50 transposase function. BLAST and ClustalW analyses have been used to find and analyze six complete protein sequences that are related to the IS50 transposase. The protein sequence ide...
متن کاملFis plays a role in Tn5 and IS50 transposition.
The Fis (factor for inversion stimulation) protein of Escherichia coli was found to influence the frequency of transposon Tn5 and insertion sequence IS50 transposition. Fis stimulated both Tn5 and IS50 transposition events and also inhibited IS50 transposition in Dam-bacteria. This influence was not due to regulation by Fis of the expression of the Tn5 transposition proteins. We localized, by D...
متن کاملLocalization of action of the IS50-encoded transposase protein.
The movement of the bacterial insertion sequence IS50 and of composite elements containing direct terminal repeats of IS50 involves the two ends of IS50, designated O (outside) and I (inside), which are weakly matched in DNA sequence, and an IS50 encoded protein, transposase, which recognizes the O and I ends and acts preferentially in cis. Previous data had suggested that, initially, transposa...
متن کاملDNA length, bending, and twisting constraints on IS50 transposition.
Transposition is a multistep process in which a transposable element DNA sequence moves from its original genetic location to a new site. Early steps in this process include the formation of a transposition complex in which the end sequences of the transposable element are brought together in a structurally precise fashion through the action of the element-encoded transposase protein and the cl...
