21. Divalent cations have very low DNA-binding constants. During their interaction with DNA, the concentration of the free dication in solution must be substantially higher than the concentration of dication molecules bound to DNA. Therefore, it is difficult to obtain reliable information about DNA binding preference for one dication over another by conventional techniques, such as fluorescence spectroscopy, equilibrium dialysis, or CD spectroscopy.
