ZACHARIAS (19), Department of -DiB chemistry, Tufts University School of chemistry, University of Alabama at Bir- Medicine, Boston, Massachusetts 11120 mingham, Birmingham, Alabama 35294 Preface The structure of DNA has been known in general terms for about forty years now. Yet in the last decade we have become much more attuned to its subtleties and how they depend on the interplay of local base se- quence, environmental conditions, covalent modification, and topology. For this reason the use of the plural form for structure in the titles of Volumes 112 and 212 is significant. Structural alterations of DNA may be relatively subtle--essentially small (though very important, nevertheless) modifications to the standard B-DNA structure--or they may be very great. Until the late 1970s DNA was regarded as an invariant, straight, right-handed B-form double helix. In the intervening period DNA structures have been described that depart from virtually all the conventional patterns. DNA can be left-handed (Z- DNA), and base pairing can be rearranged (cruciform) or remodeled (H- triplex). The axis can be bent or kinked, and triple and quadruple helices are possible. This has changed our perspective of DNA structure to one of a highly polymorphic molecule. Not all of the structures that are possible may be biologically relevant, but some undoubtedly are. Some structures may even be conformational traps that must be avoided. But it is clear that if we are to understand the structures and dynamics of DNA and its interactions with ligands, a complete analysis of its conformational flexi- bility is required. Progress in a number of areas had led to our current view of DNA as a more, structurally adventurous molecule. Initially it was the advent of new methods for the synthesis of oligonucleotides of defined sequence and high purity and the consequent crystallographic analysis of a number of DNA structures at near atomic resolution that revealed the sequence dependence of DNA structure. This also gave us the first major surprise-- left-handed Z-DNA. Short, well-defined DNA fragments may also be studied by many other physical techniques, and nuclear magnetic reso- nance spectroscopy has been particularly useful. But in parallel with these general methods, a number of powerful techniques that are more specific to DNA have emerged, including the ability to synthesize any DNA sequence of interest, the facility to clone these sequences into plasmids, and the opportunity to manipulate DNA as a closed circle. Many of the perturbed structures that DNA can adopt are stabilized by negative supercoiling, and this can be exploited to analyze DNA structure and energetics. Thus band-shift methods and two-dimen- sional gel electrophoresis are now important methods for the study of xi xii PREFACE DNA structure. In addition, probing methods have become vital to the analysis of local structure in DNA, and an armory of chemical and en- zyme probes are available for this task. Chemical probes are now being extended to the analysis of DNA inside the cell, an important aspect of their use if we are to assess the biological role of DNA structural polymor- phism. In view of the amount of activity in this area in the last decade and the new methods developed, we felt it was time to collect all the methods and approaches in one place, and these volumes are the result. Originally it was our intention to produce a single volume, which, thanks to the hard work of all our authors, eventually became two. We are most grateful to all the authors for their efforts, and we hope that their reward will be the existence of these books that should be a valuable resource for all of us in the field. We also thank the staff of Academic Press for their assistance in the preparation of these volumes. DAVID M. J. LILLEY JAMES E. DAHLBERG METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY EMULOV I.
