Replicating molecules of plasmid R6K DNA have been purified as covalently closed circular DNA forms and analyzed in the electron microscopy after cleavage with the EcoRI restriction endonuclease. It has been determined that in most cases replication proceeds bidirectionally from an origin whose position is indistinguishable from the site of the single-strand break (nick) in the open circular DNA form of the relaxation complex of R6K DNA and protein. Evidence is presented for the existence of a unique replication terminus asymmetrically placed approximately 20% of genome size from the origin. The positions of the replication forks in a majority of the molecules indicate that replication proceeds sequentially from the fixed origin first in one direction to the terminus and then progresses from the origin in the other direction.
