Genetic recombination is a fundamental mechanism by which parental traits of an organism are distributed to offspring. It provides a means of spreading a favorable allele and of eliminating an unfavorable allele in aspecies. Recombination must therefore have playd a crucial role in evolution of the genome. Recombination is also involved in various biological functions in a cell. It participates in repair of DNA damage, a primer formation of DNA replication, production of gene product diversities, alternative gene expression, and chromosome disjunction in meiosis I.Thus the study of recombination is crucial for thge understanding of the mechanisms of biological functions. To further our knowledge of fundamental problems of genetic recombination, a research group was organized supported by this grant. Main distingushed results obtained by this reserach group are as follows.1. The homologues of the recombination gene, recA, were successfully cloned from yeasts, chicken, mouse and human.2. … More A process of resolution of recombination intermediates formed by RecA to recombinant molecules are revealed.3. A recombinaion hot spot specific to mouse female was found and identified at the nucleotide sequence level on the chromosome 17.4. Two novel methods useful for study of genetic recombination were established.(1) A simple and easy method to get various chimera genes between homologues using a recE pathway of E.coli.(2) A comprehensive method to clone a specific site that made a genetic rearrangement from higher eukaryotes was estabilshed using in-gel competitive reassociation method.5. Various kinds of recombination proteins were identified and analyzed : for instance, Dhpl (S.pombe homologue of STPbeta in S.cerevisiae), Lim15 (lily homologues of Dmcl in S.cerevisiae), and RBP-Jkappa(mouse homologue of Su(H) in D.melanogaster).Thus a great advancement was made in analysis of basic recombination mechanism, methodology, and analysis of recombination mechanism in higher eukaryotes by this project.

遗传重组是一种基本的机制，通过这种机制，一个生物体的亲本性状被分配给后代。它提供了一种在一个物种中传播有利等位基因和消除不利等位基因的方法。因此，进化在基因组的进化中一定扮演着至关重要的角色。重组还涉及细胞中的各种生物学功能。它参与DNA损伤的修复、DNA复制的引物形成、基因产物的产生、基因的交替表达和减数分裂Ⅰ中的染色体分离。因此，重组的研究对于理解生物学功能的机制至关重要。为了加深我们对基因重组基本问题的了解，在这笔赠款的支持下，组织了一个研究小组。本课题组取得的主要成果如下：1.成功地从酵母、鸡、小鼠和人中克隆了重组基因recA的同源基因. ...更多信息 揭示了RecA形成的重组中间体分解为重组分子的过程.在小鼠17.4号染色体上发现并鉴定了一个雌性特异的重组热点。建立了两种研究基因重组的新方法。(1)利用大肠杆菌的recE途径获得同源物间嵌合基因的简便方法。(2)利用胶内竞争性重排技术，建立了一种从高等真核生物中克隆基因重排位点的综合方法.本项目鉴定和分析了多种重组蛋白，如酿酒酵母中STP β的粟酒裂殖酵母同源物Dhpl、酿酒酵母中Dmcl的百合同源物Lim 15、黑腹果蝇中Su（H）的小鼠同源物RBP-Jkappa，在重组基础机制分析、方法学研究以及高等真核生物重组机制分析等方面取得了重大进展。少
