Abstract
We studied the electrophoretic behavior of DNA chains in linear-polymer solutions using Brownian dynamics with an anisotropic friction tensor. We simulated the linear-shaped motion of DNA observed in highly entangled solutions [Ueda et al. : Biophys. Chem. 71 (1998) 113] using a model with a chain segment equal to 1/4 of the persistence length. A linear conformation is seen for a chain with high segment-density regions, which remain at the same positions in space, with a high anisotropy of friction, while a U-shaped conformation is seen for a chain with a low anisotropy of friction.
