The statistical mechanics of the effect of a small number of randomly occurriilg defects on the melting of a polypeptide chain is developed by using a perturbation of Boltzrnann factors technique. The method is illustrated by an example where a second-component impurity contributes more to the energ

The lattice model of Flory has been extended in order to consider equilibrium between isotropic and nematic phases containing helix-coil type chains. Nearly complete exclusion of coil sequences from the lyotropic nematic phase produces an enhanced cooperativity in the helixxoil transition. In poor s
