Role for the RecBCD recombination pathway for pilE gene variation in repair-proficient Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 2007

Hill Stuart A, Woodward Tracy, Reger Andrew, Baker Rachel, Dinse Theresa

Abstract excerpt

The role of the RecBCD recombination pathway in PilE antigenic variation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is contentious and appears to be strain dependent. In this study, N. gonorrhoeae strain MS11 recB mutants were assessed for recombination/repair. MS11 recB mutants were found to be highly susceptible to DNA treatments that caused double-chain breaks and were severely impaired for growth; recB growth suppressor...
