    By using a modification of the BAC spreading method for mounting the DNA for electron microscopy, partial denaturation maps of protein-free ø29 DNA and of ø29 DNA containing protein p3 were obtained. In ø29 P3-DNA1 the protein does not seem to influence the melting of the ends of the molecules. The comparison of the partial denaturation map and the B. subtilis RNA polymerase binding sites indicates that five of the seven early promoters (Al, A2, A3, B2 and C2) are located in A-T rich DNA regions whereas the other two early promoters (Bl and Cl) are located in less A-T rich sites.Peer reviewe
