Abstract
Helix-destabilization of double-stranded poly[d(A-T)]induced by various homologous pancreatic ribonucleases which differ in their net charges has been studied under different ionic strength conditions. The response of the destabilizing activity of the various proteins to ionic strength is represented by bell-shaped curves, whose maxima are shifted to higher ionic strength values the higher the number of positive charges of the RNAase involved in the nucleic acid-protein complex. This observation is discussed, and a model proposed, that could explain the experimental results presented.Entities:
