## S ynposis Random number methods are used to calculate helix-coil transition curves for the model of a heterogeneous polypeptide of random sequence. These curves are compared with several other calculations. The random number computations confirm the exact calculation of Lehman; among the severa

## Abstract Thermal denaturation of calf thymus DNA at both alkaline and neutral pH values was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. It was shown that the dependence of the enthalpy of transition on pH and salt concentration could be accounted for on the basis of a heat capacity change of +
## Conformation of Polypeptide i n the Helix-Coil Transition Region A recently published work by Go, Saito, and Ochiail presented a calculation of the mean values of the second (R2) and the fourth (R4) powers of the end-to-end distance of the polypeptide chain in the helix-coil transition region.
We calculate the partial molar volumes and their changes associated with the coil(extended)-to-helix transition of two types of peptide, glycine-oligomer and glutamic acid-oligomer, in aqueous solutions by using the Kirkwood-Buff solution theory coupled with the three-dimensional reference interacti
