This Week • Score Conjugation Plates, • Start High Frequency of Recombination (HFR) experiment, • Continue Nasonia experiment. High Frequency of Recombination (Hfr) ...bacteria exhibiting a high frequency of recombination, – an alteration DNA sequence such that the genotype of subsequent individuals differs from the parent, …specifically, strains with a chromosome integrated F factor that is able to mobilize and transfer part of the chromosome to the F- cell. Hfr Cells F factor ...F factor integration site, ...host (bacteria chromosome) integration site. Bacterial Chromosome Inserted F plasmid - F Pilus Attaches to F Cell Hfr DNA is Cut F factor and Chromosomal DNA are Transferred Recombination Requires Crossing over Double Crossover DNA not Incorporated into Chromosome are Digested F factor inserts in different regions of the bacterial chromosome, Also inserts in different orientations.

F factor Aa A aA Hfr F- Hfr DNA that is not incorporated in the F- strand, and DNA that has crossed out of the F- strand is digested. F factor A transfers first. A A Hfr F- A transfers last.
