Kinetic and Thermodynamic Factors Govern DNA Condensate Size and Morphology

It is well known that multivalent cations can cause DNA to condense from solution to form high-density nanometer scale particles. However, several fundamental questions concerning the phenomenon of DNA condensation remain unanswered. DNA condensation in vitro has been of interest for many years as a...
