Heteroduplex strand-specificity in restriction-stimulated recombination by the RecE pathway of Escherichia coli.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1993

Abstract excerpt

The RecE recombination pathway is active in Escherichia coli recB recC sbcA mutants. To isolate and characterize products and intermediates of RecE-mediated, break-induced, intramolecular recombination, we infected recB recC sbcA mutants, expressing EcoRI endonuclease, with chimeric lambda phages...
