Protein Family Models

Transposase proteins are necessary for efficient DNA transposition. This family includes IS66 from Agrobacterium tumefaciens [2]. [1]. 8167368. An open reading frame downstream of Rhizobium meliloti nodQ1 shows nucleotide sequence similarity to an Agrobacterium tumefaciens insertion sequence. Schwedock J, Long SR;.

Members of this protein family are DDE transposases from the IS66 family insertion sequences, which typically consist of two accessary genes (TnpA and TnpB) and the third gene encoding the transposase.
