Preferential D-loop Extension by a Translesion DNA Polymerase Underlies Error-Prone Recombination

Although homologous recombination (HR) is considered an accurate form of DNA repair, genetics suggest that Escherichia coli (E. coli) translesion DNA polymerase (pol) IV (DinB) promotes error-prone recombination during stress which allows cells to overcome adverse conditions. How pol IV functions an...
