Functional characteristics of a highly specific integrase encoded by an LTR-retrotransposon.
<h4>Background</h4>The retroviral Integrase protein catalyzes the insertion of linear viral DNA into host cell DNA. Although different retroviruses have been shown to target distinctive chromosomal regions, few of them display a site-specific integration. ZAM, a retroelement from Drosoph...
