Abstract excerpt
A recN- (recN1) strain of Bacillus subtilis was constructed. The effects of this and recF, recH and addAB mutations on recombination proficiency were tested. Mutations in the recN, recF, recH and addAB genes, when present in an otherwise Rec+ B. subtilis strain, did not affect genetic exchange. S...
