Nucleotide sequence of an RNA polymerase binding site from the DNA of bacteriophage fd

H Schaller et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1975 Feb.

Abstract

The primary structure of a strong RNA polymerase binding site in the replicative form DNA of phage fd has been determined by direct DNA sequencing. It is: (see article). The molecule contains regions with 2-fold symmetry and sequence homologies to promoter regions from other DNAs. The startpoint of transcription is located in the center of the binding site.
