Abstract excerpt
Genetic transformation of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius by a multiply marked pyrE gene provided a high-resolution assay of homologous recombination in a hyperthermophilic archaeon. Analysis of 100 Pyr(+) transformants revealed that this recombination system could transfer each of 23 nonselected base pair substitutions to the recipient chromosome along with the selected marker. In 30% of the recombinants, donor...
