Location of the coat cistron on the RNA of phage Q-beta.
A new approach for the localization of a cistron on a phage RNA has been developed. The coat protein cistron of phage Qbeta was found to begin between the 1100th and 1400th nucleotide from the 5' terminus of Qbeta RNA and therefore lies in the middle of the genome.
