TL;DR: A technique has been developed by which the translation of an f2 RNA molecule by a single ribosome can be monitored in an Escherichia coli S-30 extract and it is shown that aurintricarboxylic acid only prevents chain initiation and not chain propagation or termination of protein synthesis.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the UGACodon, like the UAG codon, causes premature termination of the polypeptide chain, and that termination can be suppressed by the appropriate sRNA.

TL;DR: A mechanism is proposed for generating one parental and one recombinant genome in a single recombination event between two DNA molecules using a biparental "replication fork" generated in initiation.
Abstract: A mechanism is proposed for generating one parental and one recombinant genome in a single recombination event between two DNA molecules. Three stages of the event are described: initiation, replication, and return. Initiation requires breakage and joining of strands. Replication proceeds through a biparental “replication fork” generated in initiation. Return also involves breakage and joining of strands. Some of the implications of such a mechanism for genetic recombination are discussed.

TL;DR: End group analysis of the isolated nascent phage RNA shows it to contain the same 5' end group present in intact RNA isolated from phage particles, which may reflect one way in which the phage controls the availability of its cistrons for translation in the infected cell.
