Abstract
The cohesive single-stranded ends of temperate Bacillus subtilis phage phi 105 were analyzed with the exonuclease activities of the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase I and with exonuclease III and were found to be 3' extensions. Chemical sequencing of 3'-end-labeled fragments showed that the ends are 7-base extended 3' single strands and have the sequence: 5'-GCGCTCC-3'. 3'-CGCGAGG-5'
