Opposite Effects of High-Valent Cations on the Elasticities of DNA and RNA Duplexes Revealed by Magnetic Tweezers

We report that trivalent cobalt hexammine cations decrease the persistence length, stretching modulus, helical density, and size of plectonemes formed under torque of DNA but increase those of RNA. Divalent magnesium cations, however, decrease the persistence lengths, contour lengths, and sizes of p...

description We report that trivalent cobalt hexammine cations decrease the persistence length, stretching modulus, helical density, and size of plectonemes formed under torque of DNA but increase those of RNA. Divalent magnesium cations, however, decrease the persistence lengths, contour lengths, and sizes of plectonemes while increasing the helical densities of both DNA and RNA. The experimental results are explained by different binding modes of the cations on DNA and RNA in our all-atom molecular dynamics simulations. The significant variations of the helical densities and structures of DNA and RNA duplexes induced by high-valent cations may affect interactions of the duplexes with proteins.
