Article Synopsis
  • Differences in viscoelasticity and molecular mass values were identified in DNA supramolecular complexes from Pseudomonas aurantiaca during exponential vs. stationary growth phases.
  • Actively growing cells had lower viscoelasticity (eta = 315 dl/g) and molecular mass (M(DNA) = 39 x 10^6 Da) compared to stationary cells, which showed higher values (eta = 779 dl/g, M(DNA) = 198 x 10^6 Da).
  • The fatty acid profiles of DNA-bound lipids also changed; stationary cells had more saturated fatty acids and produced significantly higher amounts of unsaturated fatty acids compared to exponential phase cells, highlighting the role of lipids in DNA
