摘要:
Using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) of atomic resolution, we have directly observed variant comformations of DNA, including normal B‐form and Z‐form DNA, with a modified working condition. STM images of natural fish sperm and calf thymus B‐form DNA and poly (dG‐me5dC) and bromized poly dCG Z‐form DNA have been obtained at a subnatural environment. These results have provided some new evidence that images characteristic of DNA molecules can be obtained with STM.
