The recombination hot spot chi activates RecBCD recombination by converting Escherichia coli to a recD mutant phenocopy.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 3 Jul 1995

Myers R S, Kuzminov A, Stahl F W

Abstract excerpt

The products of the recB and recC genes are necessary for conjugal recombination and for repair of chromosomal double-chain breaks in Escherichia coli. The recD gene product combines with the RecB and RecC proteins to comprise RecBCD enzyme but is required for neither recombination nor repair. On the contrary, RecBCD enzyme is an exonuclease that inhibits recombination by destroying linear DNA. The RecD ejection...
