Measuring of conformational properties of nucleic acids
Hrazdilová, Ivana ; Renčiuk,, Daniel (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
This thesis gives a brief characteristic of the most important conformations of nucleic acids. It describes alternative conformations that are different from canonical B-DNA helix, such as A-DNA, Z-DNA, triplex structures, or guanine and cytozin quadruplex structures. In the next part it presents most common methods used for determing secondary structure of nucleic acids, which are nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), measurement of circular dichroism (CD), X-ray diffraction, computational methods, measurements of ultraviolet absorbance and its utilization for analysis of thermal melting curves. In MATLAB was created algorithm with graphical user interface, which analyze melting curves and graphically computes thermodynamic parameters, which are melting temperature and transition enthalpy, which defines stability of examined sample.
