Low Efficiency of Homology-Facilitated Illegitimate Recombination during Conjugation in Escherichia coli
Homology-facilitated illegitimate recombination has been described in three naturally competent bacterial species. It permits integration of small linear DNA molecules into the chromosome by homologous recombination at one end of the linear DNA substrate, and illegitimate recombination at the other...
