Nakayama, K, Shiota, S and Nakayama, H (1988) Thymineless death in Escherichia coli mutants deficient in the RecF recombination pathway. Can. J. Microbiol. 34:905-7

Abstract

Like recF and recQ mutants studied earlier, two other classes of Escherichia coli mutants defective in the RecF conjugal recombination pathway, recJ and recO, were found to be partially resistant to thymineless death. In contrast, a recN mutant, also belonging to the pathway, was indistinguishable from the wild type with respect to thymineless death.

Significance

You can help EcoliWiki by summarizing why this paper is useful
Note: The resistance is caused by the mutant's defective RecF conjugal recombination pathway. However, this does not confer complete TLD resistance.
