Tóm tắt

ABSTRACT The akuA gene encoding the Ku70 component of the nonhomologous end-joining machinery was deleted in the opportunistic pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus . No obvious phenotype could be assessed for the corresponding mutant strain but relative frequencies of homologous recombination were increased as deduced from targeting the laccase-encoding abr2 gene.
