  • (13) These events can be divided into five different stages: 1) binding of proteins (Hin, Fis, and HU) to DNA; 2) pairing of Hin-binding sites; 3) invertasome formation; 4) DNA strand cleavage; 5) strand rotation and religation.

  • (6) To further explore the specificity of the IR tyrosine phosphokinase (TPK) domain in IR function, we have altered the human IR (hIR) cDNA to encode truncated insulin-independent TPKs, which are expressed in chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells as either membrane-anchored or cytosolic proteins.
  • (7) Glucose disposal and whole body carbohydrate oxidation were markedly lower in NIR and HIR vs. NIS (P less than 0.001 for disposal and oxidation).
