Our previous work identified a minimal region of bacteriophage lambda DNA that is necessary for packaging into phage particles. It consists of 40 bp of the right arm and 45 bp of the left arm [Miwa and Matsubara, Gene 20 (1982)267-279]. A part of this region, 22 bp of the right arm and 38 bp of the left arm, is sufficient for cutting at cos lambda (the minimal sequence for cos lambda cutting). An 84-bp region to its right contains a binding site for lambda terminase, a complex of Nu1 and A gene products. This second region, which we called the enhancing region for packaging, stimulates cutting at cos lambda as well as packaging. This region is not active if it is physically separated from the minimal packaging region. The enhancing region has 15-bp inverted repeats. These sequences are conserved in the corresponding region of bacteriophage phi 80, which has the same packaging specificity as lambda.
