End‐labeled free‐solution electrophoresis of DNA

RJ Meagher, JI Won, LC McCormick… - …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
DNA is a free‐draining polymer. This subtle but “unfortunate” property of highly charged
polyelectrolytes makes it impossible to separate nucleic acids by free‐flow electrophoresis …

TALE proteins search DNA using a rotationally decoupled mechanism

L Cuculis, Z Abil, H Zhao, CM Schroeder - Nature chemical biology, 2016 - nature.com
Transcription activator-like effector (TALE) proteins are a class of programmable DNA-
