Identification of a Specific Pseudo attP Site for Phage PhiC31 Integrase in Bovine Genome
Background: PhiC31 integrase system provides a new platform in various felid of research, mainly in gene therapy and creation of transgenic animals. This system enables integration of exogenous DNA into preferred locations in mammalian genomes, which results in robust, long-term expression of the integrated transgene. Objectives: Identification of a novel pseudo attP site. Materials and Methods...
متن کاملSynapsis in phage Bxb1 integration: selection mechanism for the correct pair of recombination sites.
Recombination by site-specific recombinases is a highly concerted process that requires synapsis of the correct pair of DNA substrates. Phage-encoded serine-integrases are unusual among the serine-recombinase family, which includes transposon resolvases and DNA invertases, in that they utilize two simple but different DNA substrates (attB and attP) and do not require accessory sites, additional...
متن کاملSite-specific recombination by phiC31 integrase and other large serine recombinases.
Most temperate phages encode an integrase for integration and excision of the prophage. Integrases belong either to the lambda Int family of tyrosine recombinases or to a subgroup of the serine recombinases, the large serine recombinases. Integration by purified serine integrases occurs efficiently in vitro in the presence of their cognate (~50 bp) phage and host attachment sites, attP and attB...
متن کاملCoiled-coil interactions mediate serine integrase directionality
Serine integrases are bacteriophage enzymes that carry out site-specific integration and excision of their viral genomes. The integration reaction is highly directional; recombination between the phage attachment site attP and the host attachment site attB to form the hybrid sites attL and attR is essentially irreversible. In a recent model, extended coiled-coil (CC) domains in the integrase su...
متن کاملSerine protease mechanism and specificity.
Almost one-third of all proteases can be classified as serine proteases, named for the nucleophilic Ser residue at the active site. This mechanistic class was originally distinguished by the presence of the AspHis-Ser “charge relay” system or “catalytic triad”.1 The Asp-His-Ser triad can be found in at least four different structural contexts, indicating that this catalytic machinery has evolve...
