Template:STRUCTURE 1kcf Resolvase or recombinase (Rec) is a nuclease which is involved in DNA recombination. The Holliday junction resolvase (HJR) resolves 4-way DNA intermediates known as Holliday junctions. Recombination of 2 DNA sites occurs when recombinase binds to the 2 strands. According to the binding residue, the recombinases are grouped to Tyr- and Ser-recombinase. Tyr-recombinases include Cre which recombines loxP sites, FLP and lambda integrase (LamInt). Ser-recombinases (S-rec) include gamma-delta resolvase (GDR), Tn3 resolvase and phiC31 integrase. RadA recombinase promotes DNA recombination. Detailed analysis of its suggests mechanisms for junction isomerization and communication between the two active sites [1]. Hin-recombinase (HRec) is a protein of Salmonella. HRec inverts a 900 base pair DNA segment which contains the promoters of flagellar genes. The inversion changes the these genes' expressions.
