Abstract:
Equilibrium optical melting curves are used in this unit to determine thermodynamic parameters of nucleic acid complex formation. This section contains all of the relevant equations and a discussion of which are most appropriate to a given situation. Additionally, procedures are given for making preliminary determinations of molar extinction coefficients and for determining the number of oligonucleotides in a complex. The section on extinction coefficients is particularly essential to anyone needing to know solution concentrations.
