Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) Treatment of DNA–MMGP1 complexes with proteinase K resulted in detection of plasmid DNA band on the agarose gel. C-Control SK+ plasmid DNA; 1-DNA–MMGP1 complex formed at 0.576 µM concentration of peptide; 2-DNA–MMGP1 complex treated with proteinase K (b) DNase I protection assay. The plasmid DNA (100 ng) was preincubated with the varying concentrations peptides such as, C+-no peptide; 1-0.576 µM; 2-0.288 µM; 3- 0.144 μM; 4-0.072 µM; 5-0.036 µM, respectively followed by treatment with DNase I. The DNase treated plasmid DNA was used as negative control (C-).
