摘要

A combination of half-site substrates and step arrest mutants of Flp, a site-specific recombinase of the integrase family, had earlier revealed the following features of the half-site recombination reaction. (i) The Flp active site is assembled by sharing of catalytic residues from at least two monomers of the protein. (ii) A Flp monomer does not cleave the half site to which it is bound (DNA cleavage in cis); rather, it cleaves a half site bound by a second Flp monomer (DNA cleavage in trans). For the lambda integrase (Int protein), the prototype member of the Int family, catalytic complementation between two active-site mutants has been observed in reactions with a suicide attL substrate. By analogy with Flp, this observation is strongly suggestive of a shared active site and of trans DNA cleavage. However, reactions with linear suicide attB substrates and synthetic Holliday junctions are more compatible with cis than with trans DNA cleavage. These Int results either argue against a common mode of active-site assembly within the Int family or challenge the validity of Flp half sites as mimics of the normal full-site substrates. We devised a strategy to assay catalytic complementation between Flp monomers in full sites. We found that the full-site reaction follows the shared active-site paradigm and the trans mode of DNA cleavage. These results suggest that within the Int family, a unitary chemical mechanism of recombination is achieved by more than one mode of physical interaction among the recombinase monomers.
