While it's flatly assumed that President Clinton will not be removed from office, the LAT suggests that a few senators in each party will cast crossover votes.
Crossover recombination (reciprocal exchange) generates chiasmata, physical connections between homologs, which provide the primary mechanism to ensure proper segregation of homologs during MI [ 1 ] . In the absence of chiasmata (crossovers), homologous chromosomes experience nondisjunction and segregate randomly from their partners.
The elitism number, the rate of gene mutation and the rate of gene crossover were 1, 0.02 and 0.8 respectively.
The possibility that the observed increase in hybridization signal to the rat ATPase 6 probe was due to crossover contamination by yeast- or P.carinii -derived ATPase 6 mRNA is remote because the mitochondrial ATPase 6 gene of yeast shares only 16 % sequence identity with that of rat.
Models for recombination posit that gene conversion and reciprocal exchange (crossover recombination) are alternative outcomes of a common intermediate [ 11 ] . Intragenic recombination at the ade6 locus, a measure of gene conversion, was reduced more than 100-fold in rec12-117 mutants [ 33 ] , and we have obtained similar results with the rec12-117 , rec12-D15 , and rec12-Y98F mutants (Figure 2; W.D.
