[Physical mapping of Streptomyces coelicolar A3(3) actinophages. III. Restriction analysis]

It has been shown that endonucleases HindII, HindIII, SalI and BsuI treatment of phiC62, or phiC43 and phiC31 DNAs forms more than 20 fragments. EcoRI cleaves phiC62, phiC31, phiC31c5 and phiC31c28 into seven fragments, but phiC311yg33 into six fragments. Comparison of molecular weights of DNA restricts obtained after hydrolysis of phage DNAs containing deletions by endonuclease EcoRI made it possible to determine the location of four fragments on restriction map and to orientate this map in relation to the molecule's ends. BamHI cleaves phiC43 DNA into two fragments. By heteroduplexing BamHi site was mapped within the phiC43 insertion sequence.
