... We hypothesize an inversion within the candidate transposed segment, with boundaries between the segments IYOL157C and IYOL155C-1 (Fig.7b). Currently, we are designing long PCR assays to test our hypothesis. We have designed primers internal to and flanking both the chromosome 15 segment and the sug ...

DNA supercoil



DNA supercoiling refers to the over- or under-winding of a DNA strand, and is an expression of the strain on that strand. Supercoiling is important in a number of biological processes, such as compacting DNA. Additionally, certain enzymes such as topoisomerases are able to change DNA topology to facilitate functions such as DNA replication or transcription. Mathematical expressions are used to describe supercoiling by comparing different coiled states to relaxed B-form DNA.As a general rule, the DNA of most organisms is negatively supercoiled.
