However, the corresponding Hin fragments from all four rescued D202 genomes were identical in their mobilities to those of tsD202 DNA, indicating that these regions of the rescued D202 genome are characteristic of the tsD202 parent.
(16) pinB mediated H inversion as efficiently as the hin gene did and mediated C inversion with a frequency three orders of magnitude lower than that of the cin gene.
(17) hCT and hINS were added only during this final incubation due to the rapid response to peptide hormones.
(18) The critical sequence-specific contacts between a Hin monomer and a 13 bp hix half-site are at two T:A base pairs in the major groove of the DNA which are separated by one base pair, and two consecutive A:T contacts in the minor groove.
(19) Hin-mediated repression results from Hin associating into multimers either prior to binding or during the binding process at the hix operator sites (cooperativity).
(20) Efficient Hin-mediated inversion requires the 20,000 MW Hin protein and a proteinase K-sensitive host component.
