Abstract
An exact theoretical approach was used to calculate melting curves of 4 DNA restriction fragments of 95-301 base pairs containing the promoter region of the lac operon (of Escherichia coli). Theoretical curves agree very well with published experimental transitions.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
