    Phage Mu transposase: deletion of the carboxy-terminal end does not abolish DNA-binding activity

    We demonstrate that a specific site on the transposase protein, pA, of bacteriophage Mu is highly susceptible to proteolytic cleavage. Cleavage is observed in a minicell system on solubilisation with the non-i...
