MELTING, computing the melting temperature of nucleic acid duplex
UNLABELLED MELTING computes the enthalpy and entropy of an oligonucleotide duplex helix-coil transition, and then its melting temperature. The program uses the method of nearest-neighbours. The set of thermodynamic parameters can be easily customized. The program provides several correction methods for the concentration of salt. MELTING is a free program, available at no cost and open-source. P...
متن کاملAssessment for Melting Temperature Measurement of Nucleic Acid by HRM
High resolution melting (HRM), with a high sensitivity to distinguish the nucleic acid species with small variations, has been widely applied in the mutation scanning, methylation analysis, and genotyping. For the aim of extending HRM for the evaluation of thermal stability of nucleic acid secondary structures on sequence dependence, we investigated effects of the dye of EvaGreen, metal ions, a...
متن کاملOptical melting measurements of nucleic acid thermodynamics.
Optical melting experiments provide measurements of thermodynamic parameters for nucleic acids. These thermodynamic parameters are widely used in RNA structure prediction programs and DNA primer design software. This review briefly summarizes the theory and underlying assumptions of the method and provides practical details for instrument calibration, experimental design, and data interpretation.
متن کاملPredicting Nucleic Acid Hybridization and Melting Profiles
Many applications in modern biotechnology require a rapid and sensitive prediction of hybridization or partial hybridization between an oligonucleotide and potential targets in a genomic DNA or mRNA database. In addition, the accurate prediction of melting profiles between an oligonucleotide and a target nucleic acid is also of great value. DNA and RNA chip technologies [16, 17], PCR primer des...
متن کاملNucleic acid melting by Escherichia coli CspE
Escherichia coli contains nine members of the CspA family. CspA and some of its homologues play critical role in cold acclimation of cells by acting as RNA chaperones, destabilizing nucleicacid secondary structures. Disruption of nucleic acid melting activity of CspE led to loss of its transcription antitermination activity and consequently its cold acclimation activity. To date, the melting ac...
