Abstract
A physical map of the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp, str ain PCC6301 genome has been constructed with restriction endonucleases PmeI, SwaI, and an intron-encoded endonuclease I-CeuI. The estimated size of the genome is 2.7 Mb. On the genome 49 genes or operons have b een mapped. Two rRNA operons are separated by 600 kb and transcribed o ppositely.
