| a novel site-specific recombination system derived from bacteriophage phimr11. | we report identification of a novel site-specific dna recombination system that functions in both in vivo and in vitro, derived from lysogenic staphylococcus aureus phage phimr11. in silico analysis of the phimr11 genome indicated orf1 as a putative integrase gene. phage and bacterial attachment sites (attp and attb, respectively) and attachment junctions were determined and their nucleotide sequences decoded. sequences of attp and attb were mostly different to each other except for a two bp com ... | 2008 | 18211826 |
