Title: Simian virus 40 DNA extracted from infected cells with sodium deoxycholate no longer reflects its in vivo superhelix density. Author: Germond JE. Journal: J Virol; 1978 Jun; 26(3):681-5. PubMed ID: 209214. Abstract: When simian virus 40 DNA is extracted from infected cells with low concentrations of sodium deoxycholate, which selectively extract non-encapsidated simian virus 40 DNA, the DNA has a lower average number of superhelical turns than the DNA extracted from purified viral particles. During extraction, a partial deproteinization of the DNA by a concentration of detergent that did not inactivate a nicking-closing activity led to the removal of some superhelical turns. The DNA extracted in this way no longer reflected its in vivo number of superhelical turns.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
