Chromosome Segregation and Cell Division Defects in <i>Escherichia coli</i> Recombination Mutants Exposed to Different DNA-Damaging Treatments

Chromosome Segregation and Cell Division Defects in <i>Escherichia coli</i> Recombination Mutants Exposed to Different DNA-Damaging Treatments

Homologous recombination repairs potentially lethal DNA lesions such as double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) and single-strand DNA gaps (SSGs). In <i>Escherichia coli</i>, DSB repair is initiated by the RecBCD enzyme that resects double-strand DNA ends and loads RecA recombinase to the emergi...
