✦ Synopsis

In recent years there has been great interest in using hexammine cobalt(II1) as an isovalent analogue of spermidine. Hexammine cobalt(II1) qualitatively mimics spermidine in many of its physical effects on nucleic acids. Quantitatively, however, there are often large differences in the effects of the two ions.

Both spermidine and hexammine cobalt(II1) promote the collapse of various DNAs into compact structures.'-4 Up to 5 times the amount of spermidine, compared to hexammine cobalt(III), is required to cause collapse. The B-Z transition can be driven by either ion. The transition, driven by hexammine cobalt(II1) binding, is observed in d(pCpG), ,5 poly(dG-dC), ' and poly(dG-m5dC).' Poly(dG-dC) also undergoes a B-Z-

The technique of equilibrium dialysis has been used to study water and salt binding to egg albumin, to human carbon monoxide hemoglobin, and to bovine serum albumin. The salts used were CsC1, KC1, NaCl, LiC1, Gu.HC1, NaBr, Cs2SO4, KzS04, Na2S04, Li2SO4, and Gu2S04. The amount of water bound by prote

## Abstract For a better understanding of the interactions between DNA and various acridine dyes, the binding of acridine (Acr) and 10‐methylacridine (MeAcr) to native and heat‐denatured calf‐thymus DNA was studied in the pH range between 4 and 10 by the equilibrium dialysis and spectroscopic metho
