Chi sites stimulate generalized recombination catalyzed by the RecA-RecBC-dependent system of E. coli. This stimulation occurs over a region of several thousand base pairs surrounding the Chi site. These sites arise by mutation at four distinct loci in bacteriophage λ. We report here the nucleotide sequence surrounding one of these loci, χB, located between thexisandredAgenes. Alteration of a singleCGbase pair, by deletion or by transversion to aGCbase pair, creates the Chi recombinational hotspot χ+B. In a section of 30 bp, the χ+Bsequence has 23 bp in common with the χ+Csequence determined previously. We presume that some part of this common sequence is the recognition sequence for a protein which acts at a rate-limiting step of generalized recombination.
