在Ahsan等给出的描述DNA分子弹性的两状态虫链模型的基础上,考虑到盐离子浓度对静电自由能的影响,得到了延伸力随盐浓度的变化规律,结果表明:在低力和高力范围延伸力受盐浓度的影响较小,相变延伸范围随盐浓度的增加非线性增加,与实验测量一致. 相似文献

在已给出的与溶液盐浓度有关的DNA弹性模型基础上, 考虑到Z-DNA的碱基堆积和氢键相互 作用, 给出了一个新的B-DNA到Z-DNA的结构转变模型. 研究了盐浓度对B—Z结构转变特性的影响, 得到了力延伸曲线、折叠角概率分布以及B—Z结构转变的临界扭矩随盐浓度的变化规律.结果表明: 当盐浓度达到2.4mol/L时, 松弛DNA的Z构象开始出现, 并且随盐浓度的增加, Z构象存在的概率增大, B—Z转变所需的扭转力矩减小.

随着单分子操纵技术的发明与发展,人们已经可以对单个生物大分子施以力或力矩,并测量它们的物理性质,DNA单分子的力学实验表明,在分子尺度上理解生物大分子的生化过程,力与能量是同等重要的结构与功能参数。一个梯子模型被用来描述双链DNA的外力拉伸曲线,在这个模型中,DNA是由许多碱基对(梯子的横杆,横杆之间存在吸引势)连接两条聚核苷酸虫链(梯子的两侧)形成的高分子,利用路径积分法得出的理论曲线与实验曲线吻合得很好,对于单链DNA,用分立的杂化高分子链统计理论的母函数方法来计算其弹性行为,得出与实验相符合的外力引起的解链相变结果。此外,对于抑瘤蛋白p53识别序列DNA微环弹性进行分析,发现其弹性模量只是通常随机序列的三分之一。 相似文献

重离子诱导的质粒DNA双链断裂分布研究 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
利用能量为7.2MeV/u氖离子束辐照体外质粒DNA:pUC18,采用恒场凝胶电泳结合多功能荧光成像系统研究了pUC18双链断裂片段的分布。证实了双链断裂片段分布的非随机性,结果还发现DNA断裂后片段的交联现象,而且交联片段的分布也是非随机的。DNA is considered to be the most important and sensitive target in biological systems. In addition to the base damage, DNA strand breaks are the major lesion in the genome due to exposure to ionizing radiation. Mutation can be introduced to DNA as a result of enzymatic processing of DNA lesions or post irradiation replication. However, the mechanisms of radiation induced mutations are not well clarified at the molecular level. To study the effect on the simple plasmid DNA of heavy ion is even predominant or more feasible. Plasmid pUC18 DNA was prepared and irradiated by neon beam (7.199 MeV/u). The fragment distributions were determined by quantifying the ethidium bromide fluorescence. It can be seen that the shape of the intensity distributions is vastly different for the used radiation Dose. The distribution produced shows an excess of fragments particularly in 3 000 and 10 000 Gy the size range between 20—40 kbp and 20—50 bp. This clustering of double stranded fragments might be influenced by the higher order chromatin structure of genomic DNA. If so, DNA loop structures could correspond to the size range for which we observed DSB clustering. Further studies aim at elucidating the heterogeneity of DSB induction within the genome and investigate the influence of chromatin structure on the non random fragment distribution. 相似文献

The cations, in the form of salt, present in a solution containing DNA play a crucial role in the opening of the two strands of DNA. We use a simple non-linear model and investigate the role of these cations on the mechanical unzipping of DNA. The Hamiltonian is modified to incorporate the solvent effect and the presence of these cations in the solution. We calculate the melting temperature as well as the critical force that is required to unzip the DNA molecule as a function of salt concentration of the solution. The phase diagrams are found to be in close agreement with the experimental phase diagrams. 相似文献

Non-contact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) has been applied to observe single- and double-stranded DNA. For the wet processes used to prepare the sample, a strong adhesion force at the surface is observed even in vacuum conditions. Despite the presence of this adhesion force, single- and double-stranded DNA images can be obtained by NC-AFM. Because of the high sensitivity of the tip-sample interaction, NC-AFM images provide stronger contrast than tapping mode (TM)-AFM images. NC-AFM images reveal detailed structures of single- and double-stranded DNA which are not revealed by TM-AFM. In addition, several NC-AFM images show contrast artifacts, which might provide information on the detailed structure of DNA. 相似文献

首先用液流拉伸单分子DNA,使其吸附在修饰过的云母基片上.然后让二次液流沿着垂直于已拉伸的DNA的方向流过云母片,用原子力显微镜(AFM)观测,可见DNA单分子片段在基片上形成了一些纳米尺度的悬链线.提出一种“S悬桥”模型能定量地解释这一现象.该研究工作揭示,在DNA的单分子操作中,经典的弹性力学理论足以描述和控制DNA分子二维图形的形成

We study the elastic responses of double-(ds) and single-stranded (ss) DNA at external force fields. A double-strand-polymer
elastic model is constructed and solved by path integral methods and Monte Carlo simulations to understand the entropic elasticity,
cooperative extensibility, and supercoiling property of dsDNA. The good agreement with experiments indicates that short-ranged
base-pair stacking interaction is crucial for the stability and the high deformability of dsDNA. Hairpin-coil transition in
ssDNA is studied with generating function method. A threshold force is needed to pull the ssDNA hairpin patterns, stabilized
by base pairing and base-pair stacking, into random coils. This phase transition is predicted to be of first order for stacking
potential higher than some critical level, in accordance with experimental observations. 相似文献
