  • Visualizing nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), nucleoprotein complexes and chromatin requires the use of special electron microscopicspreading techniques. In part 4 (27 refs.), methods are outlined for spreading DNA and RNA molecules for electron microscopic observation, these methods using modifications of the basic protein film method developed by A. Kleinschmidt and R. K. Zahn (1959). Hybridization techniques that allow the observation of heteroduplexes formed between two DNA molecules or between DNA and RNA molecules are reviewed, with specialVisualizing nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), nucleoprotein complexes and chromatin requires the use of special electron microscopicspreading techniques. In part 4 (27 refs.), methods are outlined for spreading DNA and RNA molecules for electron microscopic observation, these methods using modifications of the basic protein film method developed by A. Kleinschmidt and R. K. Zahn (1959). Hybridization techniques that allow the observation of heteroduplexes formed between two DNA molecules or between DNA and RNA molecules are reviewed, with special emphasis being placed on the DNA-RNA hybrids as a tool for elucidating RNA splicing. Techniques for studying DNA-protein interactions without the use of a protein monolayer film are mentioned. Finally, the "Miller spreading technique" for visualizing the nucleosomal organization of eukaryotic chromatin as well as the transcription of genes is discribed and illustrated.show moreshow less
