[edit] Keep the page!

I like having this page here and having it linked to Cre-LoxP recombination. I'll introduce a link to this page from the main site.

One describes the process, this page is dedicated to the protein itself. Dr Aaron 22:48, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Since it's a stub and the other is a complete article, why not combine them. When I searched for "loxp" I was linked to this article but not to Cre-LoxP article. Ideally a search for either Cre recombinase or LoxP would lead to the Cre-LoxP recombination article. I think Cre recombinase is not conceptually seperate enough from it's function on LoxP sites to justify a seperate article. Definitely put the information into the Cre-LoxP recomination article though.
