DNA that is dispersed in the liquid crystalline phases of phospholipids is actively transcribed

摘要

We report that a 4.3 kbp linearised T7 DNA plasmid is actively transcribed when it is dispersed in the hexagonal liquid crystalline phase of dioleoylphosphoethanolamine (DOPE).rnRecently we reported that cell nuclei, stripped of their nuclear membranes (s
