基于盐浓度的DNA微分稳定性

Differential stability of DNA based on salt concentration

Arghya Maity, Amar Singh, Navin Singh

摘要:

细胞内正离子中和DNA链磷酸盐上的负电荷,赋予将互补链连接成双螺旋的氢键更大的强度,从而赋予增强的稳定性。超过一定的盐浓度值,DNA分子显示出不稳定的性质{ \it in vivo}以及{ \it in vitro}。我们考虑了广泛的盐浓度和研究的稳定性的DNA双螺旋使用的统计模型。通过数值计算,我们试图解释DNA分子在这个范围内表现出的不同行为。我们比较我们的结果与实验数据,并找到一个密切的协议。

英文摘要:

Intracellular positive ions neutralise negative charges on the phosphates of a DNA strand conferring greater strength on the hydrogen bonds that connect complementary strands into a double helix and so confer enhanced stability. Beyond a certain value of salt concentration, the DNA molecule displays a unstable nature {\it in vivo} as well as {\it in vitro}. We consider a wide range of salt concentrations and study the stability of the DNA double helix using a statistical model. Through numerical calculations we attempt to explain the different behaviour exhibited by DNA molecules in this range. We compare our results with experimental data and find a close agreement.
