Abstract excerpt
The RecF pathway catalyzes generalized recombination in Escherichia coli that is mutant for recBC, sbcB and sbcC. This pathway operating on conjugational recombination requires the recA, recF, recJ, recN, recO, recQ, recR, ruvA, ruvB and ruvC genes. In contrast, lambda mutant for its own recombination genes, int, red alpha and red beta, requires only the recA and recJ genes to recombine efficiently in recBC sbcB...
