Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for measuring elasticity of DNA targeting drug-bound DNA and a method for measuring binding degree of DNA and DNA targeting drug are provided to find physical property of DNA. CONSTITUTION: A method for measuring elasticity of DNA targeting drug-bound DNA is performed by measuring tension and length to a binding DNA. A method for measuring relation of tension and length is defined by WLC having changing continuous length by formula 3 in force-length curve of WLC model of formula 1 in case of lack of interelation between kinks generated by binding. The binding with DNA targeting drug is performed in a proper tension and salt concentration.
