β¦ Synopsis
Nucleic acids with a wide range of molecular size, from mononucleotides to calf thymus DNAs, were subjected to capillary electrophoresis employing the conditions for isotachophoretic analysis of proteins; Ampholine was mixed with the sample solution and the electrolyte solutions for isotachophoresis were used. For reproducible analyis, electrophoresis was performed with a fully automated apparatus. Nucleotides were separated from bases owing to their high electrophoretic mobility. The chain length of oligonucleotides was not the major factor with regard to their electrophoretic mobility. Polynucleotides (above lo3 bases) appeared as sharp UV peaks in the zone of the hydrogencarbonate ion and their UV peak width was increased by DNase digestion, suggesting heterogeneity of the product. The applicability of capillary electrophoresis to the separation of large-molecular-sized polynucleotides has been demonstrated.
