Length of the coupling sequence of Tn916.

C K Rudy1, J R Scott.   

Abstract

The coupling sequences of conjugative transposons are short variable sequences derived from the DNA flanking the transposon insertion site. We show here that for Tn916 the left coupling sequence is 6 bases long. The right-hand end of the transposon can excise with either four or five T's, but integration occurs to restore the five T's at the transposon's right end.
