Hypothetical homologous recombination between the pP62BP1 R-M systems. (a) Theoretical model of DNA recombination between homologous sequences found with the same orientation in a circular DNA molecule. (b) Predicted products of the homologous recombination between the pP62BP1 R-M systems. Hypothetical ‘hybrid’ R-M systems (hR-M) are indicated. Neither of the predicted products was identified experimentally. Binding sites for primers used for PCR-based screening are indicated (cf. Figure S7). Colors correspond to the main genetic modules of the plasmid.
