Conformational properties of DNA strands containing guanine-adenine and thymine-adenine repeats.
CD spectroscopy and PAGE were used to cooperatively analyze melting conformers of DNA strands containing GA and TA dinucleotide repeats. The 20mer (GA)10 formed a homoduplex in neutral solutions containing physiological concentrations of salts and this homoduplex was not destabilized even in the terminal (GA)3 hexamers of (GA)3(TA)4(GA)3, although the central (TA)4 portion of this oligonucleoti...

متن کاملY586F mutation in murine leukemia virus reverse transcriptase decreases fidelity of DNA synthesis in regions associated with adenine-thymine tracts.
Using in vivo fidelity assays in which bacterial beta-galactosidase or green fluorescent protein genes served as reporters of mutations, we have identified a murine leukemia virus (MLV) RNase H mutant (Y586F) that exhibited an increase in the retroviral mutation rate approximately 5-fold in a single replication cycle. DNA-sequencing analysis indicated that the Y586F mutation increased the frequ...
متن کاملHydration energy of Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine : Monte Carlo simulation
The hydration of biomolecules is vitally important in molecular biology, so in this paper thesolvation energy and radial distribution function of DNA bases have been calculated by theMonte Carlo simulation.The geometries of isolated Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thyminehave been optimized using 6-31+G(d,p) basis function sets. These geometries then will be used inthe Monte Carlo calculation o...
متن کاملAb initio study & Density functional investigational of Adenine & Thymine; Comparison of primitive Gaussian and NBO calculation
We have performed quantum-chemical ab initio in various basis sets at the Hartree-Fock andB3LYP levels for Adenine and Thymine with the program GAUSSIAN98. The Dipole,Quadrupole, Octapole and Hexadecapole moments and primitive in nine basis sets for thesemolecules are presented. The most stabilized forms of these molecules are observed in 6-311++G** basis set. We have evaluated coefficient hybr...
