Disruption/deletion mutations in genes of theRAD52epistasis group ofSaccharomyces cerevisiaewere examined for their effects on recombination between single-and double-stranded circular DNA substrates and chromosomal genes in a transformation assay. Inrad50mutants there was a small reduction in recombination with single-stranded DNA at theleu2-3, 112allele; in addition there was an almost complete elimination of recombination attrpl-1for both single- and double-stranded DNA. Reintroduction of a wild-typeRAD50gene on a replicating plasmid carryingCEN4restored recombinational competence attrpl-1, indicating thatrad50is defective in gene replacement of this allele. Inrad52mutants a reduction of 30%-50% in recombination involving either single- or double-stranded circular DNA was observed in each experiment when compared to the wild type. This reduction of recombination inrad52mutants was similar for recombination at theura352mutant locus where only integration events have been observed, and at thetrpl-1mutant locus, where recombination occurs predominantly by gene replacement. Neither therad54nor therad57mutations had a significant effect on recombination with single- or double-stranded DNA substrates.
