Mos1 transposase interactions with transposon and flanking DNA position the transferred strand for accurate cleavage. (A) Expanded view of the catalytic domain of monomer A showing the route of the TS (dark green) and the key interactions between transposase and the TS transposon and flanking DNA (bases T57, A58 and G59). (B) Schematic of the TS (green) and conserved transposase WVPHEL and YSPD amino acids motifs (orange) in the vicinity of the DAD mutant active site (magenta). (C) Detailed view of the interactions of conserved transposase residues with T57 of flanking DNA.
