✦ Synopsis

The circular dichroism (CD) spectra of flow-oriented complexes of DNA with proflavine (PF), ethidium (ET) and distamycine (DS) have been studied in the ultraviolet region. The CD spectra with light propagating in parallel to the flow direction were measured by the method of Chung and Holzwarth [ 1 ]. A E II and AE i values have been obtained by this method. It was shown that all the complexes studied exhibit a strong CD anisotropy so that 'isotropic' CD spectra measured with a conventional procedure can be attributed to the mutual compensation of the two components of opposite signs.

A flow linear dichroism technique is utilized to study the unwinding of supercoiled DNA induced by the binding of ethidium bromide ( E B ) and proflavine ( PF) at different ratios r (drug added/DNA base). In the case of either EB or PF bound to linear calf thymus DNA, the reduced linear dichroism si

## Abstract CD spectra of calf thymus, __C. perfringens, E. coli__, and __M. luteus__ DNA have been measured in the vacuum‐uv region to about 168 nm for the A‐, B‐, and C‐forms. The positive band at about 187 nm and the negative band at about 170 nm found for each type and form of DNA are sensitive
