attP site for phiC31 integrase

The attP site is the phage attachment site for the phiC31 phage. The site is recognized by phiC31 integrase. The phiC31 integrase catalyzes a unidirectional strand exchange between a 39 bp attP site and a 34 bp attB site (Groth et al., 2000). The enzyme works by making a synapse between attP and attB, making double strand breaks producing a 2 bp sticky overhang, exchanging the strands, and re-ligating them in the recombinant configuration (attL and attR).

Improvement and Characterization by Fudan_China 2017

  • Group: Fudan_China 2017
  • Author: Haiyun Liu, Fudan University

We improved this part and characterized the kinetic characterization and the orthogonality between the integrase and some other serine recombinase using this improved attP site (BBa_K2460011). For more information, go to phiC31 integrase.
