Site-specific recombination, as exemplified by invertible
elements, resolvases, and some
phage DNA integration events are examples of non-
homologous recombination.

site-specific recombination, a mobile

inserted into a
strand of
DNA by means similar to that seen in
crossover.

site-specific recombination of the

recombination,
site-specific recombination, is found where
transfer, rearrangement or
insertion of specific sections of
DNA occurs e.g.
insertion of viral
DNA into
chromosomes,
gene switching etc.
