Transcriptionally driven cruciform formation in vivo.
We studied the formation of d(A-T)n cruciforms in E.coli cells by probing intracellular plasmid DNA with chloroacetaldehyde followed by fine analysis of modified DNA bases. d(A-T)16 sequences were inserted into specifically designed plasmids either upstream of a single trc promoter, or between two divergent trc promoters. We found that in both cases, induction of transcription by IPTG leads to ...
متن کاملTransition of a cloned d(AT)n-d(AT)n tract to a cruciform in vivo.
A 34 base pair tract of the simple repeating dinucleotide d(AT)n-d(AT)n cloned into a 2.4 kb polylinker plasmid vector undergoes a structural transition in response to negative superhelical coiling. The transition has been characterized by 2 dimensional gel electrophoresis, mapping of S1, P1 and T7 endonuclease 1 sensitive sites, and mapping of sites that are sensitive to modification by bromoa...
متن کاملMuscle-driven in vivo nanogenerator.
2010 WILEY-VCH Verlag Gmb Harvesting energy from the environment is crucial for the independent, wireless, and sustainable operation of nanodevices. This is a key requirement for building self-powered nanosystems. The living environment of nanodevices is diverse ranging from natural to in vitro and in vivo. Mechanical energy is one of the most abundant and popular energies in the environment, w...
متن کاملCompetitive superhelical transitions involving cruciform extrusion
A DNA molecule under negative superhelical stress becomes susceptible to transitions to alternate structures. The accessible alternate conformations depend on base sequence and compete for occupancy. We have developed a method to calculate equilibrium distributions among the states available to such systems, as well as their average thermodynamic properties. Here we extend this approach to incl...
متن کاملCruciform pi-systems for molecular electronics applications.
This study details a modular and general synthesis of a new class of molecules consisting of cruciform pi-systems. The key to synthesizing these molecules was an unprecedented double Staudinger cyclization. Once formed, these rigid compounds assemble into ordered monolayer films on metal and metal oxide surfaces to orient their conjugated, bis-phenyloxazole subunits upright. This surface orient...
