Low efficiency of homology-facilitated illegitimate recombination during conjugation in Escherichia coli.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2011

Amarir-Bouhram Jihane, Goin Mélodie, Petit Marie-Agnès

Abstract excerpt

Homology-facilitated illegitimate recombination has been described in three naturally competent bacterial species. It permits integration of small linear DNA molecules into the chromosome by homologous recombination at one end of the linear DNA substrate, and illegitimate recombination at the other end. We report that homology-facilitated illegitimate recombination also occurs in Escherichia coli during...
