Accessory factors determine the order of strand exchange in Xer recombination at psi.
Xer site-specific recombination in Escherichia coli converts plasmid multimers to monomers, thereby ensuring their correct segregation at cell division. Xer recombination at the psi site of plasmid pSC101 is preferentially intramolecular, giving products of a single topology. This intramolecular sel...
