Description
This research will be looking into a sexually transmitted pathogen, Mycoplasma Genitalium (MG). With RecA, MG goes through homologous recombination, causing MG to be resistant to antibodies. Furthermore, it was found that MG expresses three isoforms of RecA, which are L1, S2, and S3. The aim of this research is to study the purpose of S2 and S3 isoforms and what their effects are on L1 activity as well as the RecA.
