Magnetic control of the DNA synthesis

By using polymerases β loaded with isotopic ions 24Mg2+, 25Mg2+ and 26Mg2+ magnetic isotope effect was detected: 25Mg2+ ions with magnetic nuclei 25Mg suppress enzymatic activity by 2–3 times with respect to that of polymerases β loaded by 24Mg2+ and 26Mg2+ ions. No difference in enzymatic activity of polymerases β with 24Mg2+ and 26Mg2+ ions exists. The rate of DNA synthesis strongly depends on the magnetic field. The polymerase chain reaction is also suppressed by 25Mg2+ ions with respect to the ions with nonmagnetic nuclei. Magnetic control of the DNA synthesis may be used for medical purposes.
