Abstract excerpt
In recD sbcB sbcD mutants, repair of UV-irradiated DNA is strongly RecF dependent, indicating that RecBC is inactive. This finding suggests that exonuclease V, exonuclease I (SbcB), and the SbcCD nuclease play a redundant role in vivo, which is essential for the recombination activity of the RecBC complex during UV repair.
