Transposase Tn10

Design Notes

This part follows rules of RFC92, compatible with RFC10. The complex Tn10/IS10 is involved in the non-replicative cut-and-paste mechanism. The transposable segment is excised at its ends and is then re-inserted randomly in a DNA site.

The Tn10 transposase protein is made of 402 amino-acids, which recognises inverted repeats insertion sequence; Is10-right and Is10-left. The Tn10 protein expression is strongly regulated by various positive and negative regulation mechanisms.

This part was given by a member of the institute of systems and synthetic biology (Evry, France, the researcher Brian Jester.
