Nucleosome chiral transition under positive torsional stress in single chromatin fibers.
Using magnetic tweezers to investigate the mechanical response of single chromatin fibers, we show that fibers submitted to large positive torsion transiently trap positive turns at a rate of one turn per nucleosome. A comparison with the response of fibers of tetrasomes (the [H3-H4](2) tetramer bound with approximately 50 bp of DNA) obtained by depletion of H2A-H2B dimers suggests that the tra...
متن کاملModeling DNA thermodynamics under torsional stress.
Negatively twisted DNA is essential to many biological functions. Due to torsional stress, duplex DNA can have local, sequence-dependent structural defects. In this work, a thermodynamic model of DNA was built to qualitatively predict the local sequence-dependent mechanical instabilities under torsional stress. The results were compared to both simulation of a coarse-grained model and experimen...
متن کاملTorque transfer coefficient in DNA under torsional stress.
In recent years, significant progress in understanding the properties of supercoiled DNA has been obtained due to nanotechniques that made stretching and twisting of single molecules possible. Quantitative interpretation of such experiments requires accurate knowledge of torques inside manipulated DNA. This paper argues that it is not possible to transfer the entire magnitudes of external torqu...

متن کاملMetabolic correlates of fatigue and of recovery from fatigue in single frog muscle fibers
Fatigue and recovery from fatigue were related to metabolism in single fibers of the frog semitendinosus muscle. The fibers were held at a sarcomere length of 2.3 microm in oxygenated Ringer solution at 15 degrees C and were stimulated for up to 150 s by a schedule of 10-s, 20-Hz tetanic trains that were interrupted by 1-s rest periods, after which they were rapidly frozen for biochemical analy...
