Plotting fragment length against reciprocal of mobility gives a straight line over a wider range than the conventional semilogarithmic plot. Curvature can be removed by a simple correction. A method is also given for determining molecular weights from mobilities by direct calculation.

We describe a method to detennine the magnitude of protein-induced DNA bends relative to a set of standard A tract bends using comparative gel electrophoresis. The DNA bend of interest was that induced by the catabolite activator protein (CAP), the transcriptional activator protein of the lac operon
Relationships between DNA length and electrophoretic mobility in an agarose gel have been compared by estimating the lengths of known DNA polymer fragments, using other fragments in the series as standards. Global estimates were made using 10 fragments as standards; local estimates were made using t
