Abstract excerpt
Homologous recombination requires the coordinated effort of several proteins to complete break resection, homologous pairing, and resolution of DNA crossover structures. RecN is a conserved bacterial protein important for double-strand break repair and is a member of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein family. Current models in Bacillus subtilis propose that RecN responds to double-stranded...
