Description
The dif-site is a site for recombination at bacterial replication. When combined with a downstream direct repeat dif-site, flanked sequence will excise (including the reverse Plac). When combined with a reverse dif-site downstream, flanked DNA will invert.
Please note that the above hypothetical workings needs be tested for frequency and occurrance in vivo.
Notes
See individual bricks for details.
Source
Both dif and Plac are naturally occurring genetic elements in E. coli K12.
