ABSTRACT:
This invention generally relates to a novel recombinogenic motif having transposase activities that is important to the regulation and function of Herpes virus replication, V(D)J recombination, and immunoglobulin class switching. The present invention also relates to a site-specific DNA binding region for V(D)J and V(D)J-like recombination signals. Disclosed are identifying characteristics of such motifs as well as methods for identifying the motifs.
