资源简介:
The RecA proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium leprae contain inteins. In contrast to the M. tuberculosis RecA, the M. leprae RecA is not spliced in Escherichia coli. We demonstrate here that M. leprae RecA is functionally spliced in Mycobacterium smegmatis and produces resistance toward DNA-damaging agents and homologous recombination.
