Abstract
The DNA sequences of three bacteriophages are analysed in order to localise those parts coding for a protein. A weak stability on the DNA molecule allows us to characterize the beginning and the end of genes. A survey of the codons used shows that the cause for this weak stability is the systematic use of A-T bases in third position, which is made possible by the degeneracy of the genetic code.
