Function

TC3A_CAEEL Binds specifically to the terminal nucleotides of the TC3 inverted repeat. Its expression results in frequent excision and transposition of endogenous TC3 elements. TC3 transposase acts by making double strand breaks at the ends of TC3 element. The excised element would then be inserted into a target sequence.
