Abstract excerpt
Bacteriophage P22 DNA packaging events occur in processive series on concatemeric phage DNA molecules. At the point where such series initiate, the DNA is recognized at a site called pac, and most molecular left ends are generated within six short regions called end sites, which are present in a 120 base-pair region surrounding the pac site. The bacteriophage P22 genes 2 and 3 proteins are required for successful...
