Journal Article
Bischerour, J., & Chalmers, R. (2009). Base flipping in Tn10 transposition: an active flip and capture mechanism. PLoS ONE, 4(7), Article e6201. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0006201

The bacterial Tn5 and Tn10 transposases have a single active site that cuts both strands of DNA at their respective transposon ends. This is achieved using a hairpin intermediate that requires the DNA to change conformation during the reaction. In Tn...
