摘要

Review and analyses of the experimental data indicate that in nearly all cases bending elastic constants of the effective springs between bp of DNA actually undergo a net increase with increasing T from 278 to 315 K. The exceptions to this rule are bending elastic constants obtained from equilibrium topoisomer distributions of a 2686 bp pUC19 DNA by assuming a fixed T-independent value of the torsion elastic constant. When the same data are analyzed using measured T-dependent values of the torsion elastic constant, which decline with increasing T, a modest increase in bending elastic constant with increasing T is obtained. After revising the torsion elastic constants of the previously formulated two-state cooperative transition model to account for additional data, that model is fitted to the bending elastic constants reckoned from the aforementioned topoisomer distributions to determine the best-fit values for each state. The rather good fit implies a strong negative linear correlation between the inverse bending and inverse torsion elastic constants as T is varied. Predictions of the resulting two-state model, wherein each state has fixed bending and torsion elastic constants, agree surprisingly well with single-molecule relative extension and torque data. The same model also yields good agreement with numerous other experimental data. With increasing T the equilibrium is shifted from the (longer, torsionally stiffer, flexurally softer) b-state toward the (shorter, torsionally softer, flexurally stiffer) a-state. This transition is suggested to be the origin of the so-called broad pre-melting transition exhibited by many, but not all, DNAs.
