[Genetic characteristics and genome structure of Streptomyces coelicolor actinophages].
Actinophage phi C31 of Streptomyces coelicolor A3 (2) and two novel temperate actinophages phi C43 and phi C62 isolated from strains of blue actinomycetes group are homoimmune, serologically and functionally related. DNA molecules of phages phi C31, phi C43 and phi C62 have cohesive ends; sizes of DNAs of these phages and some mutants have been determined. The extent of homology between the DNAs of three phages is 93-96% as shown by heteroduplex analysis. The regions of non-homology are of a deletion-insertion type and of approximately 1500 base pairs in the length. Location of deletions in DNAs of mutant phages phi C31 vd and phi C31 c5 has been shown. Structural modifications in phage dnas have been found only to occur in the right part of molecules. Heteroduplex maps have been constructed for all phages studied.
