The unconventional Xer recombination machinery of Streptococci/Lactococci.

The unconventional Xer recombination machinery of Streptococci/Lactococci.

Homologous recombination between circular sister chromosomes during DNA replication in bacteria can generate chromosome dimers that must be resolved into monomers prior to cell division. In Escherichia coli, dimer resolution is achieved by site-specific recombination, Xer recombination, involving tw...
