Abstract excerpt
In vivo recombination as a tool for plasmid construction was analyzed using a model system based on the properties of the RecF pathway in Escherichia coli. This pathway was used after a double strand break (DSB) effected by restriction enzyme cleavage of the plasmids of interest. DSB repair was shown to be independent of the methylation state of the vector or insert DNA, of the type of restriction enzyme used (5'...
