## Abstract CD and uv absorption data showed that high molecular weight poly(dA‐dT) · poly(dA‐dT), at 298 K, undergoes an acid‐induced transition from B‐double helix to random coil in NaCl solutions of different concentrations, ranging from 0.005 to 0.600__M__. Similarly, titration of the polynucle
Under certain conditions, DNA condenses into a cholesteric liquid crystalline phase, yielding solutions that give CD signals that are orders of magnitude larger than usually observed for DNA.' DNA in this state-called + DNA-may display either positive or negative CD signals. +-DNA displays a large n
## Abstract A commercial sample of poly (dA‐dT), a copolymer of 2′‐deoxyribosyladenosine (dA) and 2′‐deoxyribosylthymidine (dT) of perfectly alternating sequence, was fractionated by chromatography on Agarose gel. Paucidisperse fractions of different molecular size were obtained. The plot of log __
Poly(dA-dT) • poly(dA-dT) is a double-helical B DNA containing A • T and T • A base pairs in alternating sequence. Although Raman spectra of this structure have been reported previously, the temperature dependence of the Raman bands has not been examined in detail. Using a spectrometer of high spect
