Article Synopsis
  • Molecular interactions in living cells are influenced by high concentrations of organic compounds, notably proteins, which complicate studies on molecular crowding.
  • The research highlights that using model proteins and organic cations reveals how they selectively stabilize specific DNA structures, particularly in crowded environments.
  • The findings demonstrate that basic globular proteins stabilize certain DNA loop structures through weak electrostatic interactions, contrasting with the effects observed from basic polypeptides and polyamines on fully matched duplexes.
