Journal ArticleDOI
Structural domains of IS10 transposase and reconstitution of transposition activity from proteolytic fragments lacking an interdomain linker
TL;DR: It is inferred that the structural integrity of transposase during the transitions involved in the chemical steps of the transposition reaction is maintained independent of the linker, presumably by direct contacts between and among the principal domains.
Book ChapterDOI
Mutants of Escherichia coli K12 which affect excision of transposon Tn10.
Victoria Lundblad,Nancy Kleckner +1 more
TL;DR: The isolation of host mutants of Escherichia coli K12 which exhibit increased frequencies of precise excision of transposon Tn10 are reported, supporting the idea that precise and nearly precise excison occur by closely related pathways which are distinct from those pathways which promote the third type of excision event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAD50 gene during meiosis: steady-state transcript levels rise and fall while steady-state protein levels remain constant
Wendy E. Raymond,Nancy Kleckner +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the increased RAD50 transcript level observed during meiosis does not reflect utilization of a new promoter, and steady-state levels of Rad50 protein do not increase duringmeiosis, so changes in RAD50 transcripts levels are not neccessarily accompanied by commensurate changes in Rad50protein levels.
