Pathways for homologous recombination between chromosomal direct repeats in Salmonella typhimurium.

Genetics - 1 Jul 1997

Galitski T, Roth J R

Abstract excerpt

Homologous recombination pathways probably evolved primarily to accomplish chromosomal repair and the formation of and resolution of duplications by sister-chromosome exchanges. Various DNA lesions initiate these events. Classical recombination assays, involving bacterial sex, focus attention on...
