Abstract:
:Heteroduplexes between the viral DNA of phiX174 and DNA from the replicative form (RF) of phage G4 were examined by electron microscopy. The single Eco RI site of G4-RF was utilized as a physical marker by preparing the heteroduplexes from the denatured, linear DNA obtained by restricting G4-RF with Eco RI endonuclease. Restriction fragments of phiX were used in a separate series of heteroduplexes to align the heteroduplex map and the G4 Eco RI site with the similar genetic maps of the two phages. The positions of the branch migrating junctions of recombinant phiX-G4 figure-8s, previously located only with respect to the G4-Eco RI site, have now been located with high proability within the gene A region of the two genomes. The degree of mismatch between the known nucleotide sequences of phi X and G4 accounts for positions of all of the regions of single-strandedness in the observed heteroduplexes, but unexplained discrepancies were also found.
