^aEach potential recombinase satisfies the following criteria: each protein has an Expect (E) value less than 0.01 based on PSI-BLAST-computed alignments with the query sequence (Beta or RecT) and is found in a pseudomonad genome or phage. Descriptions are of Pseudomonas genes identified using an iterative PSI-BLAST search.

^bPSI-BLAST results of searches initiated with lambda Red Beta (NP_040617.1). Convergence was achieved in 8 iterations.

^cPSI-BLAST results of searches initiated with RecT (NP_415865.1) from E. coli DH10B. Convergence was achieved in 14 iterations.

^dAdjacent genes encoding a putative exonuclease. The dashes indicate that a gene encoding an exonuclease was not found.
