Question
Chapter 9, Problem 10RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The major proteins involved in recombination along with their roles.
Introduction:
Recombination is the exchange of genetic material occurring between two organisms that belong to either same or different species. Bacterial recombination is different than what occurs in case of eukaryotes. Recombination can occur by three pathways in the bacterial cells, transformation, transduction, and conjugation.
