Transformation by simian virus 40 of spleen cells from a hyperimmune rabbit: evidence for synthesis of immunoglobulin by the transformed cells.

abstract：:The polymerization of individual RecA-DNA filaments, containing either single-stranded or double-stranded DNA, was followed in real time, and their mechanical properties were characterized with force-measuring laser tweezers. It was found that the stretch modulus of a filament is dominated by its (central) DNA compone...
