Ubiquity of complex coacervation of DNA and proteins in aqueous solution

We report complex coacervation between a primarily hydrophobic protein, elastin, and a strong polyanion DNA (2 kbp) in aqueous and salty solutions at room temperature, 25 °C. The associative interaction at fixed elastin and varying DNA concentration, thereby maintaining a mixing ratio of r = [DNA] :...
