## 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
Formulas are derived which relate the maximum slope of the helix-coil transition in synthetic polynucleotides to the stacking free energy and to the exponent k in the expression for the probability of ring closure for polymer chains. The exact value of k has not yet been determined. By use of the de
## Abstract The coil to helix conformational transitions undergone by poly‐γ‐benzyl‐~L~‐glutamate in solutions of haloacetic acids and various cosolvents were studied by means of proton magnetic resonance. The results indicate a very small solvent dependence of the α‐CH Helix–coil chemical shift di
