title: Recombination and RNA processing: a common strand?
abstract: Genetic recombination is a basic cellular process required for altering genome structure. The RecA protein of Escherichia coli has a central role in homologous recombination, and a eukaryotic protein with similar properties has been discovered in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Unexpectedly, this RecA-like protein has additional biochemical activities, and its function may not be restricted to recombination.
