Nucleotide sequence at the termini of the DNA of Bacillus subtilis phage phi 29.

Escarmís C, Salas M

Abstract

Phage phi 29 DNA cannot be phosphorylated with polynucleotide kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP because of the presence of a viral protein covalently linked to the 5' termini. The 5' ends can, however, be made susceptible to phosphorylation by treatment with alkali and alkaline phosphatase. Restriction fragments Hpa II C and Hpa II F, corresponding to the right and left ends of phi 29 DNA, respectively, were labeled at the 5' ends with polynucleotide kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP or at the 3' ends with terminal transferase and [alpha-32P]ATP or [alpha-32P]cordycepin 5'-triphosphate. After a secondary cleavage of the labeled fragments, the sequence of the first 150-180 nucleotides at the termini of phi 29 DNA was determined by the method of Maxam and Gilbert. The ends of phi 29 DNA are flush, and a six-nucleotides-long inverted terminal repetition was found. The functional implications of the sequences determined are discussed.
