| Abstract: | In the living cellular environment, DNAs exist in a compact state in the presence of a polyamine, such as spermidine, We found that the hydrolysis of.-ITP into ADP induces the folding of elongated DNAs, by the single-chain observation of individual T4 DNA molecules, This result is discussed in relation to the possible role of ATP as a regulatory factor in genetic activity, in addition to its well-established role as an energy source, (C) 1999 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. |
