Abstract excerpt
Certain genomic loci, termed hot spots, are predisposed to undergo genetic recombination during meiosis at higher levels relative to the rest of the genome. The factors that specify hot-spot potential are not well understood. The M26 hot spot of Schizosaccharomyces pombe is dependent on certain trans activators and a specific nucleotide sequence, which can function as a hot spot in a position- and...
