Abstract excerpt
To test the effects of theta-type replication on homologous DNA recombination, we integrated in the chromosome of Bacillus subtilis a structure comprising a conditional replication region and direct repeats of approximately 4 kb. The replicon was derived from a broad-host-range plasmid, pAM beta 1, which replicates by a unidirectional theta mechanism and its thermosensitive. The direct repeats were derived from...
