## Synopsis Studies were made of the influence of hydrostatic pressure on the helix-coil transitions of poly(A + U) and poly(A + 2U). The results were analyzed by a thermodynamic treatment which emphasized the cooperative aspect of the transitions. The helix-to-coil volume changes were found to be

## i. Br. (West Germany) synopsis The effect of deuterium on the thermal stability of the polynucleotide double helix formed by the homopolymers polyadenylic acid (poly A) and polyuridylic acid (poly U) has been invertigated by measuring the heat capacity as a function of temperature in an automat
## Abstract The ZimmβBragg theory is extended to treat the melting of the triple helix poly (A + 2U) for a solution with a 1 : 2 mole ratio of poly A to poly U. Only the case for long chains is considered. For a given set of parameters the theory predicts the fraction of segments in the triple heli
## Abstract The slow kinetics of annealing processes in multistranded nucleic acids is spectrophotometrically investigated using poly(A)Β·2poly(U) as a model system. The absorbance changes at specific wavelengths show that doubleβhelical (AΒ·U) base pairs appear as transient intermediates. The anneal
