Popis: | Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) microscopy is used to observe structures of DNA aggregates formed during electrophoresis in ultradilute hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC). FRET gives evidence of aggregates with a tightly packed core and random entanglement of DNA in the outer portions. HEC concentrations also appear to play a role in aggregate formation. DNA aggregates take longer to assemble in higher HEC concentration solutions and assume a less compact form than those formed at lower HEC concentrations. |
