The terminus regions of the chromosomes of three strains of Bacillus subtilis 168 were radioactively labelled by supplying [3H]thymine towards the end of a round of replication. These strains lacked or contained the prophage SP beta c2. Following restriction endonuclease digestion of the purified DNA and fluorography, an SP beta c2-related perturbation of the terminus-labelling profile was observed, which was completely consistent with the previously suggested existence of an impediment to replication fork movement (terC) within a BamHI 24.8 X 10(3) base fragment (Weiss & Wake, 1983). The present data suggest that terC is located within the 11.4 X 10(3) base BamHI + SalI double-digest portion of this BamHI fragment.
通过在一轮复制接近尾声时提供[3H]胸腺嘧啶,对三株枯草芽孢杆菌168染色体的末端区域进行放射性标记。这些菌株缺乏或含有原噬菌体SPβc2。在对纯化的DNA进行限制性内切酶消化和荧光自显影后,观察到与末端标记图谱相关的SPβc2扰动,这与之前提出的在BamHI 24.8×10³碱基片段内存在复制叉移动障碍(terC)完全一致(Weiss和Wake,1983年)。目前的数据表明,terC位于该BamHI片段11.4×10³碱基的BamHI + SalI双酶切部分内。
