Biochemical and biological function of Escherichia coli RecA protein: behavior of mutant RecA proteins.

Biochimie - 1 Jan 2000

Kowalczykowski S C

Abstract excerpt

The recA protein of E coli participates in several diverse biological processes and promotes a variety of complex in vitro reactions. A careful comparison of the phenotypic behavior of E coli recA mutations to the biochemical properties of the corresponding mutant proteins reveals a close paralle...
