  • Title: Chromosome segregation and cell division defects in recBC sbcBC ruvC mutants of Escherichia coli.
    Author: Zahradka D, Vlahović K, Petranović M, Petranović D.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1999 Oct; 181(19):6179-83. PubMed ID: 10498734.
    Abstract:
    The RuvC protein is important for DNA recombination and repair in Escherichia coli. The present work shows that a ruvC null mutation introduced into a recBC sbcBC background causes severe defects in chromosome segregation and cell division. Both defects were found to result from abortive recombination initiated by the RecA protein.
