Shapiro D, Maestre M, McClain W, Hull P, Shi Y, Quinby-Hunt M, et al.
Appl Opt . 2010 Oct; 33(24):5733-44. PMID: 20935975
The coupled-dipole approximation has been used to model polarized light-scattering data obtained from the sperm of the octopus Eledone cirrhosa. Mueller scattering-matrix elements (which describe how a sample alters the...

Biophys J . 2009 May; 5(3):275-87. PMID: 19431333
The intrinsic birefringence of multiple-coiled DNA is computed in terms of an equally dense array of parallel DNA molecules. The birefringence for n times-coiled DNA molecules is given by [Formula:...

Corbett J, Mickols W, Maestre M
J Biol Chem . 1995 Feb; 270(6):2708-15. PMID: 7852341
We have used differential polarization imaging microscopy to measure the amount and orientation of aligned sickle hemoglobin polymer in quickly deoxygenated sickle red blood cells. Images of the angular orientation...

Song L, Maestre M
J Biomol Struct Dyn . 1991 Dec; 9(3):525-36. PMID: 1815641
This paper presents a method to observe the motions and configurations of large DNA molecules undergoing capillary electrophoresis (CE). A simple device to perform CE horizontally under microscopic observation is...

Song L, Maestre M
J Biomol Struct Dyn . 1991 Aug; 9(1):87-99. PMID: 1781950
It has been found that DNA molecules are often hooked around obstacles in a U-shaped configuration in gel electrophoresis. To understand the dynamics of the unhooking of U-shaped DNA molecules...

Bustamante C, Houseal T, BEACH D, Maestre M
J Biomol Struct Dyn . 1990 Dec; 8(3):643-55. PMID: 2100523
The fluorescent dye, acridine orange, was used to visualize bacterial chromosomes extending from bacteria attached to a glass surface. The acridine-induced condensation of these chromosomes was followed in real-time with...

Houseal T, Bustamante C, Stump R, Maestre M
Biophys J . 1989 Sep; 56(3):507-16. PMID: 2790136
A fluorescence microscopy technique was used to image the dynamics of individual DNA molecules. Lambda, calf thymus, cosmid (circular), and T4 DNA were studied with the fluorescent dye acridine orange....

Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 1988 Nov; 157(1):350-8. PMID: 3196342
The cis and trans isomers of dicationic bis(4-N-methylpyridyl)diphenylporphine show a much greater tendency to aggregate than similar tetracationic porphyrins. Upon binding to nucleic acids these aggregating dicationic porphyrins form long-range...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 1988 Nov; 85(22):8482-6. PMID: 3186738
The phenomenon of Duysens flattening of the absorption spectra resulting from the inhomogeneous distribution of the chromophores in the solution is analyzed. These inhomogeneities are treated as localized statistical fluctuations...
