Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.6Å Ligands: NI Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function RAYT_ECOLI Transposase that is always flanked by repeated extragenic palindrome (REP) sequences, which are clustered in structures called bacterial interspersed mosaic elements (BIMEs). RayT catalyzes cleavage and recombination of BIMEs. Binds REP sequences and cleaves BIMEs both upstream and downstream of the REP sequence. Could be important in the creation of BIME variability and amplification.
