Isolation of Heterogeneous Circular DNA from Induced Lysogens of Bacteriophage Mu-1

RESUMO
Covalently-closed circular DNA molecules are formed after induction of phage Mu cts4 and after infection with phage Mu cts4. The circular molecules obtained after induction have a molecular length range from 36.5 to 156.7 kilobases as measured by electron microscopic techniques. These heterogeneous molecules have no consistent correlation to exact multiples of a Mu genome equivalent (37.3 ± 1.2 kilobases). Direct evidence is given that these molecules contain phage Mu DNA that is covalently linked to other DNA sequences.
