Abstract:
A system is described for measuring thermal denaturation of nucleic acid fractions directly in polyacrylamide gels. Total nucleic acids were fractionated by disc gel electrophoresis. The buffer within the gel was then exchanged for one commonly used in denaturation studies. Thermal denaturation profiles of DNA and ribosomal RNA in the gel were determined using a specially constructed Gel Carriage to position the appropriate fraction during spectrophotometric measurements. These profiles were compared with denaturation patterns obtained by classical methods in free solution; the two methods yielded similar patterns. Thermal denaturation profiles were also obtained for chloroplast light ribosomal RNA resolved by gel electrophoresis of total plant nucleic acids. Thus, denaturation patterns of individual, minor components present in complex nucleic acid mixtures can be directly measured in gels. © 1974.
