Structural Polymorphism of Single pDNA Condensates Elicited by Cationic Block Polyelectrolytes

DNA folding is a core phenomenon in genome packaging within a nucleus. Such a phenomenon is induced by polyelectrolyte complexation between anionic DNA and cationic proteins of histones. In this regard, complexes formed between DNA and cationic polyelectrolytes have been investigated as models to ga...
