General Information
Term gene conversion at mating-type locus ID (Ontology) GO:0007534 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The conversion of the mating-type locus from one allele to another resulting from the recombinational repair of a site-specific double-strand break at the mating-type locus with information from a silent donor sequence. There is no reciprocal exchange of information because the mating-type locus copies information from the donor sequence and the donor sequence remains unchanged.[ PubMed:10716938 PubMed:7646483 PubMed:9928492 ]
Also Known As "strand invasion involved in gene conversion at mating-type locus"
