relaxase is a single-strand DNA
transesterase enzyme produced by some
prokaryotes and viruses.

relaxase enzyme creates a nick in one of the
strands of the
conjugative plasmid at the oriT.
Relaxase may work

- the oriT is both an
enzymatic substrate and
recognition site for the
relaxase proteins.
Relaxosomes have oriT-specific
