Abstract

DNA transposition plays key roles in genome diversity, pathogenesis, and evolution. Yet, structural and mechanistic information on transposition targeting and regulation is limited. Arias-Palomo and Berger now define the decameric organization of the AAA+ ATPase IstB, unveiling key insights into its targeting and regulation of IstA transposase activity.
