[Restriction mapping of T4 bacteriophage late gene region which contains the origins of DNA replication]. / Restriktsionnoe kartirovanie oblasti pozdnikh genov faga T4, soderzhashchei tochki initsiatsii replikatsii.

DNAs of lambda T4 recombinants 596-27 (genes 50-5), 596-30 (genes 50-8), 596-29 (genes 50-12), 591-16 (genes 6-8), 591-1 (genes 9-12), 596-13 (genes 13-16), 596-17 (genes 18-20) and 596-11 (genes 25-29) were mapped with the use of EcoRI, HindIII, SmaI, SalI and BamHI restriction enzymes. T4 dcDNA was digested with HindIII restriction endonuclease and resulting fragments were cloned into HindIII lambda vector 761. The recombinants 761-7, 761-17, 761-19, 761-24, 761-44, 761-50, 761-55 contained the region of genes 25-48 and 761-42, 761-26 and 761-16 contained a single HindIII-fragment with genes 6-12 in both orientations. Data obtained with the DNA of the latter recombinants allowed to show the correctness of the map established earlier which did not contain a full set of overlapping sequences. As a result of the experiments reported, the position of EcoRI and HindIII recognition sites in the region of genes 50-20 and 25-48 was determined and in the region of genes 25-48 BglII and XhoI restriction sites were mapped. The location of a single BamHI restriction site in the region of gene 8 was also established.
