Best Answer

One method for detecting DNA-protein interaction. EMSA rely on the ability of proteins to bind radiolabels DNA fragments in vitro. Once binding occurs, DNA-protein complexes can be separated from unbound DNA fragments by nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electroforesis. In general the larger the protein or protein complex bound to the DNA, the greater the extend of retardation of mobility of the radiolabeled DNA fragment. The resulting protein-DNA complexes are visualized by autoradiography.

How does EMSA electromobility shift assay measure whether the protein bends DNA?

EMSA does not measure if protein bends to DNA. It does measure what proteins bind to a specific region of DNA (usually a promoter region). You can use a supershift to determine exactly what protein is binding to the specific DNA region.
