  • MODULATORS OF ENZYMATIC NUCLEIC ACID ELEMENTS MOBILIZATION
    Publication number: 20090098548
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a nucleic acid cleavage assay for members of the transposase/integrase superfamily. A method of using the assay to screen for modulators of the nucleic acid cleavage activity is also disclosed. The present invention further provides a method for screening for modulators of binding of a transposase/integrase to its corresponding recognition sequence. In addition, the present invention provides a method of identifying a modulator for a particular transposase/integrase such as HIV integrase based on modulators of other members of the transposase/integrase superfamily. Also disclosed are Tn5 transposase inhibitors and HIV integration inhibitors.
