Chain length determination of small double- and single-stranded DNA molecules by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
摘要：
We describe the use of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to estimate chain lengths of double- and single-stranded DNA molecules in the size range 20-1000 base pairs (or nucleotides). Double-stranded DNA molecules of known length produced either by organic synthesis or by restriction endonuclease digestion of viral DNAs were used as standards. The relative electrophoretic mobilities of these standards were examined on both nondenaturing (aqueous) polyacrylamide gels and on denaturing gels containing 7 M urea or 98% formamide. Electrophoretic mobility of DNA is a linear function of the log of molecular weight if appropriate conditions are used, although exceptions are noted. Chain lengths can be conveniently estimated by using as standards bacteriophage gamma DNA restriction fragments or commercially available tracking dyes.
