Inhibition of non-homologous end joining and integration of DNA upon transformation of Rhizopus oryzae.

Abstract excerpt

Site-directed integration of DNA in the fungus Rhizopus has long been problematic because linearized plasmids used for transformation tend to replicate in high-molecular-weight concatenated structures, and rarely integrate into the chromosome. This work examines the methods that might interfere with the multimerization process, select against plasmids that had recircularized, and encourage strand invasion,...
