Abstract
The decanucleotide sequence d(CCGGTACCGG) crystallizes as a four-way junction at low cobalt ion concentrations (i.e., 1 mM). When the cobalt concentration in the crystallization solution is increased to 5 mM, the sequence crystallizes as resolved B-DNA duplexes. Gel retardation studies of the decamer show both a faint slow-moving band and a much thicker fast-moving band at low cobalt ion concentrations, and only the intense fast-moving band at higher ion concentration. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy of the decamer indicates a structural transition as the cobalt ion concentration in the solution is increased, probably from B-type to A-type DNA. These studies revealed that the oligomer sequence has several conformations and structures accessible to it, in a manner dependent on sequence, ion concentration, and DNA concentration.
