Abstract excerpt
The contribution of Zn(II) toward the binding of bacteriophage T4 gene 32 single-stranded nucleic acid-binding protein (gp32) has been examined by the use of two independent approaches. Studies carried out with successively longer oligonucleotides which have the general structure p(dT)n, where n...
