Abstract excerpt
To investigate a possible role of p53 in DNA exchange mechanisms, we have developed a model system which allows us to quantify homologous recombination rates in eukaryotic cells. We generated two types of simian virus 40 (SV40) whose genomes were mutated in such a way that upon double infection of monkey cells, virus particles can be released only after interchromosomal exchange of genetic material. This test...
