Characterization of a dinoflagellate (amphidinium carterae) dna.
The DNA of the photosynthetic Dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae shows, by certain physico-chemical criteria two major components, a light satellite and a permanent DNA-RNA hybrid whose presence explains the unusual behaviour of Amphidinium DNA according to classical methods of analysis. The frequent presence of a slow-growing accompanying bacterium does not seem to interfere with any of these findings.
