Subject: Rad51 sequence Dear Michael, Sorry for the delay. For now it should be called Rad51. It is located in 99D3 6. There are no known repair or recombination genes there, but there are several essential complementation groups, which we are in the act of checking. I have not seen the Akaboshi et al. records but I knew of the paper. No question it's the same gene. Thanks. Yours truly, Bruce McKee
