The structure of the RecA-single-stranded DNA complex was investigated by studying the fluorescence emission of poly(deoxy-1,N6-ethenoadenylic acid (poly(d epsilon A)), a fluorescent derivative of poly(dA), under various viscosity conditions. The fluorescence intensity and average lifetime of poly(d epsilon A) are much smaller than those of nonpolymerized monoethenonucleotides (1,N6-ethenoadeno...

poly methyl methacrylate (pmma) is the most common material used in prosthodontics. several studies indicate a breakdown of the number of very high resin bases after 2 to 3 years to avoid breaking bass and several attempts have been made, such as altering the chemical structure of resin by adding causes cross linking or copolymerization. the innovative method for improving the physical properti...

Lymphoid V(D)J rearrangement is targeted by recombination signal sequences (RSS) bordering V, D or J exons. We demonstrate that the DNA composition of flanking coding positions, particularly poly(A) or poly(T) stretches at one or both RSS, diminishes V(D)J recombination up to 100-fold. Positionally correct cleavages occur in the inhibited reactions, since the junctions formed show the same freq...
