Molecular cloning and physical map of bacteriophage PM2 DNA

The entire genome and the DNA fragments of the lipid-containing bacteriophage pM2 were cloned in the pBR322 plasmid vector. A physical map including the sites for the following restriction enzymes was obtained: HpaII, HaeIII, TthI, Sau96I, AvaII, PstI, BstNI, AccI, HincII, HpaI and HindIII. No restriction sites on PM2 DNA were found for BalI, BamHI, BclI, BglI, BglII, BstEII, KpnI, PvuII, SacI, SalI, Sau3A, XbaI and XhoI.
