Structural and functional characterization of the Redβ recombinase from bacteriophage λ. by Kazuko Matsubara, Ali D Malay, Fiona A Curtis, Gary J Sharples, Jonathan G Heddle

“…We also identified a single amino acid substitution which had little effect on oligomerization and DNA binding but which inhibited DNA annealing, indicating that these two functions of Redβ can be separated. Taken together, the results provide fresh insights into the structural basis for Redβ function and the important role of quaternary structure.…”
