Abstract
Like recF and recQ mutants studied earlier, two other classes of Escherichia coli mutants defective in the RecF conjugal recombination pathway, recJ and recO, were found to be partially resistant to thymineless death. In contrast, a recN mutant, also belonging to the pathway, was indistinguishable from the wild type with respect to thymineless death.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
