Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Function
Integrase from the cryptic lambdoic prophage e14. Integrase is necessary for integration of the phage into the host genome by site-specific recombination. In conjunction with excisionase, integrase is also necessary for excision of the prophage from the host genome.
Similarity
Belongs to the 'phage' integrase family.
