Abstract
The genome of the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. strain PCC6301 (Anacystis nidulans 6301) is 2.7 Mb in size. To understand the genome structure and function we constructed a set of ordered lambda clones that covered the entire region of the Synechococcus PCC6301 genome. The insert DNA of lambda phage clones was amplified by LA PCR and sheared to short DNA fragments. The resultant DNA fragments were subcloned into a SmaI site of pUC18, and then shotgun sequenced. We present here the gene organization of Synechococcus PCC6301 genome.https://doi.org/10.1071/SA0403729
