Site-specific recombination
Site-specific recombination is a reaction in which a pair of genetically defined sites undergoes reciprocal exchange ("crossing-over") via a recombinase-mediated DNA breakage and joining process. Such reactions have a wide range of biological outcomes, from integration and excision of viru...
