Separation of recombination and SOS response in Escherichia coli RecA suggests LexA interaction sites.

RecA plays a key role in homologous recombination, the induction of the DNA damage response through LexA cleavage and the activity of error-prone polymerase in Escherichia coli. RecA interacts with multiple partners to achieve this pleiotropic role, but the structural location and sequence determina...
