Reassociation kinetics of E. coli and bovine DNA

Reassociation kinetics of E. coli and bovine DNA
Previous Image | Next Image
Description:
The abscissa corresponds to reassociation time, corrected for the difference in size between the E. coli and bovine genomes.

The curve for E. coli corresponds to that expected for a collection of single-copy genes in a genome of the E. coli size— 6 bp.

The curve for bovine DNA exhibits two steps in reassociation.

The slow step corresponds to single-copy DNA (nonrepeated sequences).

The other corresponds to rapidly reassociating DNA made up of repeated sequences.

Many classes of repeated DNA are represented in this phase of the reassociation.
