In vivo mRNA for bacteriophage .vphi.X-174 was fractionated in agarose gels into a number of discrete species ranging in size from 0.23 .times. 106-2.3 .times. 106 daltons. These RNA species were eluted from the gels and hybridized to specific fragments derived from .vphi.X-174 replicative form DNA by cleavage with [Hind II, Hap II, Hpa I and Hin H-I] restriction enzymes [endonucleases]. A map of the orientation of in vivo mRNAs with respect to the bacteriophage genetic map was constructed. This map indicated that initiation of mRNA occurred before gene B, gene C or D, and probably before gene A and that termination occurred after genes E, F, G and H. Termination of transcription at any particular site may not to be entirely effective such that a number of overlapping transcripts with the same 5''-terminus was observed. mRNA for gene A may be relatively unstable.
