Cre recombinase from bacteriophage P1 recognizes a 34-bp recombination site, loxP, with exquisite sequence specificity and catalyzes the site-specific insertion, excision, or rearrangement of DNA. To better understand the molecular basis of protein-DNA recognition and generate recombinases with altered specificities, we have developed a directed ev...
