Nucleotide sequences near the origin of replication of bacteriophage f1

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1977 Oct;74(10):4219-22. doi: 10.1073/pnas.74.10.4219.

Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of a region related to the initiation of the reaction in which single-stranded DNA gives rise to the replicative form (complementary strand synthesis) in bacteriophage f1 has been determined. The sequence can be drawn in an extensively base-paired structure, i.e., a single hairpin-helix 55 bases long.
