Only certain DNA fragments are taken up efficiently by competent Haemophilus cells; this implies that efficient uptake requires the presence of a specific nucleotide sequence on the incoming DNA. To determine the structure of this uptake site, 4 small fragments of cloned H. parainfluenzae DNA were isolated which retain the ability to be taken up by cells. These fragments have a sequence of 11 base pairs in common, 5''-AAGTGCGGTCA-3'' and ethylation of certain phosphoryl groups in this sequence causes significant decreases in fragment uptake. This is the sequence of the uptake site.
