Phages lambda and fd were propagated in Escherichia coli strains that have either host K-12 or the N-3 R-factor deoxyribonucleic acid-cytosine methylase activity. Pyrimidine tracts containing 3H-labeled 5-methylcytosine (MeC) were analyzed; in all cases, the major methylated sequence was 5' ... C-MeC-T ... 3'.
噬菌体λ和fd在具有宿主K-12或N-3 R因子脱氧核糖核酸-胞嘧啶甲基化酶活性的大肠杆菌菌株中繁殖。分析了含有3H标记的5-甲基胞嘧啶(MeC)的嘧啶序列;在所有情况下,主要的甲基化序列是5'...C-MeC-T...3'。
