Co-crystal structure of the Tc3 transposase 1TC3) and its DNA target

Structure includes Tc3 residues 2-52 and a 21 bp molecule of DNA. The predicted HTH DNA binding region (25-44) is shown in cyan.

This structure is shown using the Chime program. You can rotate it by clicking and draging the mouse button on it, and zoom in and out by doing the same while pressing the shift key. More options (including getting the program to rotate the image) will apear if you just click on the structure window.

Chime works with Netscape WWW browsers on Macintosh, Windows and Silicon Graphics computers. The program can be downloaded for free.
