Unsheared lysates of Bacillus subtilis 168T(-) containing uniformly labeled deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) were exposed to varying doses of gamma rays to introduce double-strand scissions in the chromosome. From an estimate of the number-average molecular weight and the amount of DNA bound to membrane after irradiation, about 70 to 90 regions of the bacterial chromosome were detected in membrane fractions. Since this number was independent of the molecular weight of the DNA (i.e., the extent of fragmentation of the chromosome), it is thought to represent an upper limit in the number of membrane-binding sites per chromosome.
将含有均匀标记脱氧核糖核酸(DNA)的枯草芽孢杆菌168T(-)未剪切裂解物暴露于不同剂量的γ射线下,以在染色体中引入双链断裂。通过对辐照后数均分子量和与膜结合的DNA量的估计,在膜组分中检测到约70至90个细菌染色体区域。由于该数字与DNA的分子量无关(即染色体的片段化程度),因此认为它代表了每条染色体上膜结合位点数量的上限。
