RESUMO
Expression of the Escherichia coli mutA mutator phenotype requires recA, recB, recC, ruvA, and ruvC gene, but not recD, recF, recO, or recR genes. Thus, the recBCD-dependent homologous recombination system is a component of the signal pathway that activates an error-prone DNA polymerase in mutA cells.
