Abstract
The complete 7.2-kb nucleotide sequence from the 58.3 to 65.5-kb early region of bacteriophage T4 has been determined by Maxam and Gilbert sequencing. Computer analysis revealed at least 20 open reading frames (ORFs) within this sequence. All major ORFs are transcribed from the left strand, suggesting that they are expressed early during infection. Among the ORFs, we have identified the ipIII, ipII, denV and tk genes. The ORFs are very tightly spaced, even overlapping in some instances, and when ORF interspacing occurs, promoter-like sequences can be implicated. Several of the sequences preceding the ORFs, in particular those at ipIII, ipII, denV, and orf61.9, can potentially form stable stem-loop structures.Entities:
