PropertyValue
?:definition
  • 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.
