The Bam repeats of the mouse genome belong in several superfamilies the longest of which is over 9 kb in size
Dr. J. Rogers (MRC, Cambridge) has called our attention to the possibility that the 6.2 kb XbaI , and the 4.4 and 4.1 kb XbaI-BamI or XbaI-EcoRI or XbaI-BamI-EcoRI hybridization bands from Figures 4 and 5 may be due to pBR322 contaminating the mouse liver DNA preparation used. Control experiments have confirmed this contamination. As a consequence, the conclusions bearing on the presence of repeated sequences to the right of R repeats on the map of Fig. 1 are not warranted.
Two lines are missing on p. 1600. The sentence starting at the end of the third line should read as follows : "these smears are also absent in XB and XBE digests, where the very strong 0.5 and 0.28 bands are present (Fig. 5). Two other results obtained with the 0.28 kb probe are 1) the appearance...
