A A Kolesnikov, and O Abdurazzakov, and I E Semina, and G N Zaitseva

A highly purified associate of kinetoplast DNA is isolated from C. oncopelti, and its physico-chemical properties are studied. Both native associate and its ultrasonic fragments are found to have a complex character of melting. 5-6 melting zones (3 of them being the main) are found on the melting curve. Analysis of reassociation kinetics of sonicated associate of kinetoplast DNA has revealed the presence of at least two components: fast reassociating component (65-70% of complex DNA), which reassociation kinetics is equivalent to the unique sequence with molecular weight of 2.3. - 10(6) daltons, and slow reassotiating component (15% of complex DNA), having reassociation kinetics equivalent to unique sequence of 26 - 10(6) daltons. The data obtained suggest that complex associate of kinetoplast DNA is heterogenous for its nucleotide sequence and base composition.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008970 Molecular Weight The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule. Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D002621 Chemistry A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
D003854 Deoxyribonucleotides A purine or pyrimidine base bonded to a DEOXYRIBOSE containing a bond to a phosphate group. Deoxyribonucleotide
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
