Abstract
Fragments synthesized by amber mutants in gene 23 contain peptides which are present in the uncleaved P23 precursor protein but not in the cleaved protein P23*. A comparison of the translational and genetic maps of gene 23 shows that, for most of the gene, there is a constant average frequency of recombination of 0.012 units per amino-acid.
