Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) having a terminal psoralen group was synth
esized and covalently bound to plasmid pBR 322 DNA through a photochem
ical reaction. The resulting conjugate exhibited temperature-responsiv
e precipitation due to the aggregation of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)
chains when heated above 31 degrees C. This system was used for the on
e-pot separation of restriction endonuclease EcoRI.
