Unraveling the structure of DNA during overstretching by using multicolor, single-molecule fluorescence imaging

Single-molecule manipulation studies have revealed that double-stranded DNA undergoes a structural transition when subjected to tension. At forces that depend on the attachment geometry of the DNA (65 pN or 110 pN), it elongates approximately 1.7-fold and its elastic properties change dramatically....
