H-NS mediates the dissociation of a refractory protein–DNA complex during Tn10/IS10 transposition (2011)
Journal Article

Tn10/IS10 transposition takes place in the context of a protein–DNA complex called a transpososome. During the reaction, the transpososome undergoes several conformational changes. The host proteins IHF and H-NS, which also are global regulators of g... Read More about H-NS mediates the dissociation of a refractory protein–DNA complex during Tn10/IS10 transposition.

The transposon-like correia elements encode numerous strong promoters and provide a potential new mechanism for phase variation in the meningococcus (2011)
Journal Article

Neisseria meningitidis is the primary causative agent of bacterial meningitis. The genome is rich in repetitive DNA and almost 2% is occupied by a diminutive transposon called the Correia element. Here we report a bioinformatic analysis defining eigh...
