英文摘要 | In vitro investigation on the condensation of DNA induced by naturally occurring polyamines can provide useful insights into the packaging state of DNA in vivo, which is closely related to the mechanism of the self-regulation or self-switching of the gene expression. The present paper reports the high resolution AFM observations of the condensates of spermidine-DNA complexes. It was found that the spermidine can directly condense the DNA into toroidal structures. The formation of this special structure is greatly influenced by the dynamic factors such as the concentrations and the reaction time. Close examination revealed that the toroids were constructed by many particles stacked and squeezed together. Our observations indicate that the dynamic process of the toroid formation may be a spiral wound process of the globular subunits. |
