A detailed study was made of the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of DNA restriction fragments obtained from 2 plasmids, pBR322 and p82-6B. Variables studied were MW, gel concentration, temperature and electric field strength. The retardation coefficients of the larger fragments (> 800 base pairs) were independent of MW. The retardation coefficients of the smallest fragments (.ltoreq. 300 base pairs) were proportional to MW1/3 and to the mean geometric radii of the fragments. The logarithm of the relative mobility of all fragments was also proportional to MW1/3. The anomalous migration of certain fragments on polyacrylamide gels is transportable into fragments generated by different restriction enzymes. Anomalous migration was enhanced at lower temperatures and disappeared upon increasing the temperature. A fragment which migrated anomalously slowly migrated even more anomalously when dimerized; dimerizing a normally migrating fragment resulted in the normal migration of the dimerized fragment. Anomalously migrating fragments were found to be localized in distinct regions of the pBR322 circle.
