cas1 solo endonuclease
SMART ACC:SM001431
Description:cas1 solo endonuclease is involved in integration and excision of Casposons (a type of mobile element) within a genome. Its mechanism of integration is similar to integration of CRISPR spacer regions PMID:24884953 and PMID: 21219465
Family alignment:View the Family alignment or the Alignment consensus sequence
There are 7 453 cas1 domains in 7 451 proteins in SMART's NRDB database.

KEGG pathways involving proteins which contain this domain

This information is based on the mapping of SMART genomic protein database to KEGG orthologous groups. Percentages are related to the number of proteins containing a cas1 domain which could be assigned to a KEGG orthologous group, and not all proteins containing cas1 domains. Please note that proteins can be included in multiple pathways, ie. the numbers below will not add to 100%.
