title: Improved recovery of DNA from polyacrylamide gels after in situ DNA footprinting.
abstract: Methods used to date for the isolation of DNA from polyacrylamide gels are elution based, time-consuming and with low yield in DNA. This paper describes an improved system employing polyacrylamide gels made of a meltable matrix. The new system was successfully applied to in situ DNA footprinting following gel retardation assays.
