一个生物体的DNA序列中编码了多少信息?我们认为,DNA的信息,机械和拓扑性质是相互依存的,并共同作用,以指定遗传组织和染色质结构的主要特征。在体内产生的超螺旋,部分由DNA移位酶的作用,可以传递到拓扑敏感的区域编码的不太稳定的DNA序列。
How much information is encoded in the DNA sequence of an organism? We argue that the informational, mechanical and topological properties of DNA are interdependent and together act to specify the primary characteristics of genetic organisation and chromatin structures. Superhelicity generated in vivo, in part by the action of DNA translocases, can be transmitted to topologically-sensitive regions encoded by less stable DNA sequences.
