Physical mapping of primary and secondary origins of bacteriophage T7 DNA replication.

RESUMO

Deletion mutants of bacteriophage T7 have been used to identify and to map, by electron microscopy, the origins of T7 DNA replication. The primary origin of phage T7 DNA replication lies within a 100-base-pair region located 14.75-15.0% of the distance from the genetic left end of the DNA molecule. T7 phage whose DNA contains a deletion of this region initiate replication at secondary origins, the predominant one of which is located at a distance approximately 4% from the left end of the molecule.
