Evidence for hydrated spermidine-calf thymus DNA toruses organized by circumferential DNA wrapping.

abstract：:Proteins that bind to DNA are found in all areas of genetic activity within the cell. To help understand how these proteins perform their various functions, it is useful to analyse which residues are involved in binding to the DNA and how they interact with the bases and sugar-phosphate backbone of nucleic acids. Here...
