Abstract

A physical map of the Simian virus 40 genome has been constructed on the basis of specific cleavage of Simian virus 40 DNA by bacterial restriction endonucleases. The 11 fragments produced by enzyme from Hemophilus influenzae have been ordered by analysis of partial digest products and by analysis of an overlapping set of fragments produced by enzyme from Hemophilus parainfluenzae. In addition, the single site in SV40 DNA cleaved by the Escherichia coli RI restriction endonuclease has been located. With this site as a reference point, the H. influenzae cleavage sites and the H. parainfluenzae cleavage sites have been localized on the map.
