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 helixโcoil transition of DNA of various base compositions has been followed by measuring the heat capacity and the ultraviolet absorption as a function of temperature through the transition region. The results of these measurements indicate that the transition enthalphy ฮ__H__ for a
