Homologous recombination (Lys+) and homeologous recombination (His+) in null sgs1Δ::kan mutants (sgs1Δ) containing a wild-type or mutant version of SGS1 integrated at the ADE2 locus were compared to that of the wild-type SGS1 parent. The mutant alleles of SGS1 (full-length 1447 amino acids) contain the helicase-defective allele (K706A) and/or terminal deletions of the indicated number of amino acids from the amino (N) or the carboxy (C) terminus (Mullen et al. 2000). Confidence intervals of 95% are indicated within parentheses. The relative rate was calculated by dividing the mutant rate by the wild-type rate.
