The Bacillus subtilis 168 dna-1 chromosome was labelled during sporulation with [3H]thymine for five minutes immediately before termination of replication. The isolated radioactive DNA was cleaved with BamHI (or SalI) and the resulting restriction fragments separated by agarose gel electrophoresis. The individual fragments, fractionated into a series of slices cut from the gel, were then cleaved with SalI (or BamHI) and the double-digest fragments identified by electrophoresis and fluorography. All major fragments and most minor ones present in a whole double-digest were assigned to BamHI and SalI parents. Such information enabled the construction of an unambiguous restriction map of 150 X 10(3) bases of the approximately 250 X 10(3) bases of DNA labelled in the five minutes. In conjunction with published data on the order of replication of restriction fragments as termination is approached, it was clear that most (105 X 10(3) bases) of the mapped DNA was replicated by a major fork moving in one direction towards a BamHI 24.8 X 10(3) base fragment. The 45 X 10(3) bases extending to the other side of this region were labelled only slightly, and presumably was replicated by a fork that approached the other in an opposite direction until its progress was blocked or severely impeded within this region at a site, referred to as terC, sometime (less than 5 min) earlier. The regions of the map replicated in the final 2.5 and 1.0 minute by the major fork were also identified.
