The role of the insE open reading frame in transposition of IS1 was reexamined by using an insE nonsense mutation that does not alter the amino acid sequence of InsA inhibitor or InsAB transposase. The mutant was active in all strains tested, showing that insE is not essential for formation of cointegrates.
通过使用不改变InsA抑制剂或InsAB转座酶氨基酸序列的insE无义突变,重新研究了insE开放阅读框在IS1转座中的作用。该突变体在所有测试菌株中均具有活性,表明insE对于共整合体的形成不是必需的。
