Anti-FLP1 antibody - N-terminal,Abcam,AB231288

Target data Part of the plasmid amplification system, which corrects any decrease in copy number caused by a rare missegregation event. Catalyzes the recombination between the large inverted repetitions of the 2-micron plasmid during plasmid replication. This recombination event changes the direction of one of the two replication forks in the bidirectionally replicating molecule, effectively resulting in multiple rounds of replication from a single initiation event. Binds specifically to the FLP recognition target (FRT) site where it induces DNA to bend. Three types of bend exist. Type I is approximately 60 degrees and results from 1 FLP molecule binding to 1 symmetry element. Type II is >144 degrees and results from FLP molecules binding to symmetry elements a and b. Type III is approximately 65 degrees and results from FLP molecules binding to symmetry elements b and c. See full target information FLP1
