Abstract excerpt
A recombination-deficient strain of the phototrophic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas viridis was constructed for the homologous expression of modified photosynthetic reaction center genes. The R. viridis recA gene was cloned and subsequently deleted from the R. viridis genome. The cloned R. viridis recA gene shows high identity to known recA genes and was able to complement the Rec- phenotype of a Rhizobium meliloti...
