Abstract: | Summary Circular DNA has been investigated in the water mold Saprolegnia. This organism was shown to contain two satellite DNA components at 1.685 and 1.707 g/cm3 in addition to main band DNA at a buoyant density of 1.717 g/cm3. The component banding at a density of 1.685 g/cm3 was found to occur as closed circles of length 14 m in the relaxed form. On the basis of sucrose gradient studies this DNA is thought to be mitochondrial in origin. No other class of circular molecules was observed. |
