Nucleotide sequence and expression in Escherichia coli of the recA gene of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The nucleotide sequence of the recA gene of Neisseria gonorrhoeae MS11 has been determined. The product of this gene can act as a recombinase in Escherichia coli, but does so with a decreased efficiency, probably because of the formation of mixed multimers with the equivalent E. coli protein.
