The nucleoprotein filament formed by the RecA protein of Escherichla coll on single-stranded DNA catalyzes the hybridization of RNA transcripts with singlestranded DNA sequences at 37°C, In vitro. RecA protein rapidly promotes hybridization, even when noncomplementary RNA is In a milllonfold nucleotide excess over hybridizing RNA, and in a thousandfold nucleotide excess over hybridizing single-stranded DNA. Heterologous double-stranded DNA and RecAcoated noncomplementary single-stranded DNA are also poor competitors of RNA transcripts producedin vitro. Since large excesses of noncomplementary RNA fail to inhibit sharply the hybridization reaction by RecA protein under mild, non-degradative conditions, the reaction may be useful in the identification and isolation of transcripts produced In vivo.
