## Synopsis The thermal denaturation method was employed to study the effect of Ca2+ and Mn2+ ions on the DNA helix-coil transition parameters at Na+ concentrations of 10-3-10-1M. A t low ion concentrations, thermal stability increases, the melting range passes through a maximum, and the denaturat

Polyamines are ubiquitous cellular components that interact strongly with nucleic acids. Although many of the interactions of oligocations with DNA can be rationalized with polyelectrolyte theories that treat counterions as point charges, some structural effects are evident. We have explored the eff
