Initiation of genetic recombination and recombination-dependent replication.
Recombination initiates at double-stranded DNA breaks and at single-stranded DNA gaps. These DNA strand discontinuities can arise from DNA-damaging agents and from normal DNA replication when the DNA polymerase encounters an imperfection in the DNA template or another protein. The machinery of homologous recombination acts at these breaks and gaps to promote the events that result in gene recom...
متن کاملGenetic recombination in Micromonospora.
Biochemical mutants were obtained from Micromonospora chalcea, M. purpurea, and M. echinospora by using ultraviolet radiation or nitrosoguanidine. Crosses carried out between complementary nutritional mutants of the same species showed positive genetic interaction. Data are reported which indicate that the interaction between the crossed strains is due to genetic recombination. No evidence for ...
متن کاملGenetic recombination in plants.
Meiotic recombination generates novel allelic arrays on chromosomes. Recent experiments have revealed an extraordinarily nonrandom distribution of recombination breakpoints along the lengths of plant chromosomes; for example, recombination breakpoints often resolve within genic sequences, and thereby generate novel alleles. The mechanism by which recombination breakpoints are determined is an a...
متن کاملGenetic recombination in mycobacteria.
Evidence for genetic recombination between Mycobacterium smegmatis strain Rabinowitchi (Rab) and strain Jucho or PM5 is presented. Backcrosses of recombinants by either parental strain indicated four different types of mating behavior, suggesting that the mycobacterial compatibilities are controlled by at least two different factors. No sex factor that transfers at a high frequency or that is s...
متن کاملLigand-activated site-specific recombination in mice.
Current mouse gene targeting technology is unable to introduce somatic mutations at a chosen time and/or in a given tissue. We report here that conditional site-specific recombination can be achieved in mice using a new version of the Cre/lox system. The Cre recombinase has been fused to a mutated ligand-binding domain of the human estrogen receptor (ER) resulting in a tamoxifen-dependent Cre r...
