Recombinational Events between Exogenous Mouse DNA and Newly Synthesized DNA Strands of Chicken Cells in Culture

Nature New Biology volume 231, pages 261–265 (1971)Cite this article

Abstract

When chicken cells are cultivated with mouse 3-DNA and BUdR, 3-labelled light segments are found in replicated strands of cellular DNA and heavy segments occur in DNA strands of mouse origin. This suggests that nascent strands of cellular DNA are partly replaced by pieces of mouse DNA and vice versa.
