General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function Tn5 transposase preferentially targets near the entry-exit DNA regions within the nucleosome. Tn5 transposase minimally cleaves the dinucleosome without a linker DNA. A linker DNA length of 10-15 base-pairs is important for the efficient Tn5 integration reaction. In the presence of a 30 base-pair linker DNA, Tn5 transposase targets the middle of the linker DNA, in addition to the entry-exit sites of the nucleosome Escherichia coli
