Abstract
The forces that govern DNA double helix organization are being finally systematically measured. The non-specific longer-range interactions--such as electrostatic interactions, hydration, and fluctuation forces--that treat DNA as a featureless rod are reasonably well recognized. Recently, specific interactions--such as those controlled by condensing agents or those consequent to helical structure-are beginning to be recognized, quantified and tested.Mesh:
