General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function transposase Pgm is essential for DNA cleavage at ends of internal eliminated sequences. The DDD triad and the cysteine-rich domain are essential for Pgm activity and mutations in either domain have a dominant-negative effect in wild-type cells. A mutant lacking the cysteine-rich domain is partially active in the presence of limiting Pgm amounts, but inactive when Pgm is completely absent Paramecium tetraurelia
