Nucleic Acid Denaturation

Synonyms

Acid Denaturation, Nucleic

Nucleic Acid Denaturations

DNA Melting

Denaturation, Nucleic Acid

DNA Denaturation

Denaturation, DNA

Denaturation, RNA

RNA Denaturation

Definitions

Disruption of the secondary structure of nucleic acids by heat, extreme pH or chemical treatment. Double strand DNA is "melted" by dissociation of the non-covalent hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. Denatured DNA appears to be a single-stranded flexible structure. The effects of denaturation on RNA are similar though less pronounced and largely reversible.
