Structure Factors Of Binary Fluids In A Dilute Gel, J.C. Lee Oct 1995

Structure Factors Of Binary Fluids In A Dilute Gel, J.C. Lee

Faculty Publications

The statio and dynamic structure factors of binary fluids in a dilute gel are computed using a two-dimensional kinetic Ising model. The wetting effect of the gel strands is modeled with ''gel atoms'' which are distributed randomly among the spins and impose a field on their neighboring spins, all in the same direction. The result for the static structure factor shows the presence of adsorption clusters which mask the gel atoms. The result for the dynamic Structure factor shows an extremely slow relaxation-at late times which cannot be fitted in the form of the activated dynamic scaling known for random-field …


Accuracy Of Deoxynucleotide Incorporation By Soybean Chloroplast Dna-Polymerases Is Independent Of The Presence Of A 3' To 5' Exonuclease, J. Clinton Bailey Ii, Sabine Heinhorst, Gordon C. Cannon Apr 1995

Accuracy Of Deoxynucleotide Incorporation By Soybean Chloroplast Dna-Polymerases Is Independent Of The Presence Of A 3' To 5' Exonuclease, J. Clinton Bailey Ii, Sabine Heinhorst, Gordon C. Cannon

Faculty Publications

DNA polymerase was purified from soybean (Glycine max) chloroplasts that were actively replicating DNA. The main form (form I) of the enzyme was associated with a low level of 3' to 5' exonuclease activity throughout purification, although the ratio of exonuclease to polymerase activity decreased with each successive purification step. A second form (form II) of DNA polymerase, which elutes from DEAE-cellulose at a higher salt concentration than form I, was devoid of any exonuclease activity. To assess the potential function of the 3' to 5' exonuclease in proofreading, the fidelity of deoxynucleotide incorporation was measured for form I DNA …
