Multiple serine transposase dimers assemble the transposon-end synaptic complex during IS607-family transposition

Multiple serine transposase dimers assemble the transposon-end synaptic complex during IS607-family transposition

IS607-family transposons are unusual because they do not have terminal inverted repeats or generate target site duplications. They encode two protein-coding genes, but only tnpA is required for transposition. Our X-ray structures confirm that TnpA is a member of the serine recombinase (SR) family, b...
