q-beta and r17 sequences

[Tien-Hsien Chang]

     I have attempted to retrieve the complete sequence information of 
bacteriophages Q-beta and R17 without success.  Does anyone know whether these 
two phage genomes have been completely sequenced?

     I am mainly interested in the complete sequence information of the COAT 
PROTEIN genes in both phages.  I am also searching for sources where I can 
obtain these "cloned" genes.

     Your helps are much appreciated.
