Título: | RecA-independent ectopic transposition in vivo of a bacterial group II intron |
Autor: | Martínez-Abarca, Francisco CSIC ORCID; Toro, Nicolás CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2000 | Editor: | Oxford University Press | Citación: | Nucleic Acids Research, 2000 November 1; 28(21): 4397–4402 | Resumen: | RmInt1 is a group II intron of Sinorhizobium meliloti which was initially found within the insertion sequence ISRm2011-2. Although the RmInt1 intron-encoded protein lacks a recognizable endonuclease domain, it is able to mediate insertion of RmInt1 at an intron-specific location in intronless ISRm2011-2 recipient DNA, a phenomenon termed homing. Here we have characterized three additional insertion sites of RmInt1 in the genome of S.meliloti. Two of these sites are within IS elements closely related to ISRm2011-2, which appear to form a characteristic group within the IS630-Tc1 family. The third site is in the oxi1 gene, which encodes a putative oxide reductase. The newly identified integration sites contain conserved intron-binding site (IBS1 and IBS2) and δ′ sequences (14 bp). The RNA of the intron-containing oxi1 gene is able to splice and the oxi1 site is a DNA target for RmInt1 transposition in vivo. Ectopic transposition of RmInt1 into the oxi1 gene occurs at 20-fold lower efficiency than into the homing site (ISRm2011-2) and is independent of the major RecA recombination pathway. The possibility that transposition of RmInt1 to the oxi1 site occurs by reverse splicing into DNA is discussed. | Descripción: | Final full-text version of the paper available at: http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/28/21/4397 .-- Copyright © by Oxford University Press. -- Http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/ | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/3691 | DOI: | 10.1093/nar/28.21.4397 | ISSN: | 0305-1048 |
