This communication focuses on the role of protein-phosphate contacts in manipulating DNA structure as a requirement for transposition catalysis."

"In particular, the participation of the nontransferred strand (NTS) 5' phosphate in Tn5 transposition strand transfer is analyzed. The 5' phosphate plays no direct catalytic role, nonetheless its presence stimulates strand transfer similar to 30-fold. X-ray crystallography indicates that transposase-DNA...
