About: Tn3 transposon

An Entity of Type: airport, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Tn3 transposon is a 4957 base pair mobile genetic element, found in prokaryotes. It encodes three proteins: * β-lactamase, an enzyme that confers resistance to β-lactam antibiotics (and is encoded by the gene Bla). * Tn3 transposase (encoded by gene tnpA) * Tn3 resolvase (encoded by gene tnpR) Initially discovered as a repressor of transposase, resolvase also plays a role in facilitating Tn3 replication (Sherratt 1989). The transposon is flanked by a pair of 38bp inverted repeats.
