2002, Journal of Molecular BiologyCitation Excerpt :Thus, inversion reactions may give products which are unknotted, or knots of varying complexity, and resolution reactions may give unlinked DNA circles, or circles linked as catenanes of varying complexity (Figure 1(a)). Other “restrictive” recombinases (for example, the Tn3, γδ, and Tn21 resolvases, and the Hin and Gin DNA invertases) give a single major product; in the case of Tn3 resolvase, a catenane in which the two DNA circles are simply linked (Figure 1(a)).5,6 Permissive recombination systems do not distinguish between pairs of recombination sites in direct repeat (“head to tail”) or in inverted repeat, and can recombine sites on different DNA molecules.
