The mechanism and consequences of recombination hotspot recognition by an AddAB-type helicase-nuclease
Over billions of years cells have evolved numerous conserved repair pathways to deal with the continuous onslaught of DNA damage. One particularly toxic lesion is a double-stranded DNA break, which can be faithfully repaired by the ubiquitous homologous recombination pathway. In bacteria, the proces...
