Abstract excerpt
The recombination genes involved in Holliday junction migration (ruvB, recG, radA) and heteroduplex editing (mutS) were studied in the alpha-proteobacterium Rhizobium etli. The genes were interrupted with a loxPSp interposon and R. etli mutants, either single or in combination, were constructed by marker exchange. Our results show that these systems play a differential role in sensitivity to DNA damaging agents...
