Recombinational Repair of DNA Damage in Escherichia coli and Bacteriophage $lambda$

Andrei Kuzminov^*

Institute of Molecular Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon 97403

Although homologous recombination and DNA repair phenomena in bacteria were initially extensively studied without regard toany relationship between the two, it is now appreciated that DNArepair and homologous recombination are related through DNA replication.In Escherichia coli, two-strand DNA damage, generated mostly duringreplication on a template DNA containing one-strand damage, isrepaired by recombination with a homologous intact duplex, usuallythe sister chromosome. The two major types of two-strand DNA lesionsare channeled into two distinct pathways of recombinational repair:daughter-strand gaps are closed by the RecF pathway, while disintegratedreplication forks are reestablished by the RecBCD pathway. Thephage $lambda$ recombination system is simpler in that its major reactionis to link two double-stranded DNA ends by using overlapping homologoussequences. The remarkable progress in understanding the mechanismsof recombinational repair in E. coli over the last decade is dueto the in vitro characterization of the activities of individualrecombination proteins. Putting our knowledge about recombinationalrepair in the broader context of DNA replication will guide futureexperimentation.
