摘要

For nucleic acid oligomers with variable chain lengths,the salt concentration ([salt]) dependences of the denaturation temperature (T_m) and of the free energy of helix formation at 37 deg C (DELTAG_37~o) are predicted using nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann (NLPB) calculations.Analysis of experimental data reveals that the ratio of the [salt] derivative of melting temperature (ST_m = dT_m/d log [salt]) to the value for a polymer with the same base composition (ST_m/ST_(m,infinity)) is independent of base composition but strongly dependent on the number of DNA charges (|Z|) below -8 bp for two-strand helices (formed from association of two complementary strands) and below approx 18 bp for hairpin helices (formed from folding of one self-complementary strand).We interpret these ST_m/ST_(m,infinity) ratios in terms of the ratio of thermodynamic ion release from the oligomer (DELTAn_u,per charge) to that from the same oligomer embedded in polymeric DNA (DELTAn)_(n,infinity) per charge).Experimental values of ST_m/ST_(m,infinity) and its dependence on |Z| are in good agreement with NLPB predictions for a preaveraged (essential structural) model of DNA.In particular,the NLPB calculations describe the stronger |Z| dependence of ST_m observed for melting of oligomeric hairpin helices than for melting of two-strand helices.These calculations predict an experimentally detectable (>10%) difference between ST_m and ST_(m,infinity) which increases strongly with decreasing length for two-strand helix lengths of < 15 bp and for hairpin helix lengths of <30 bp.From NLPB values of DELTAn_u/DELTAn_(u,infinity),we predict AG_37~o as a function of [salt] and |Z|.Predictions of thermodynamic and thermal stabilities of oligomeric helices as functions of length and [salt] are consistent with and represent a significant refinement of the average oligomer salt effect currently in use in nearest neighbor stability predictions.
