Abstract excerpt
The Acinetobacter calcoaceticus pcaJ and catJ genes, nearly identical in DNA sequence, differ in transcriptional control and are separated by more than 20 kb of chromosomal DNA. The pcaJ3125 mutation is repaired frequently in organisms containing the wild-type catJ gene. This high-frequency repair is eliminated in strains lacking the catJ gene, which suggests that recombination between the homologous catJ and...
