title: [Physico-chemical properties of DNA of human adenovirus type 6].
abstract: Physico-chemical characteristics of human adenovirus type 6 DNA were studied. The sedimentation constant of adenovirus type 6 DNA was shown to be 32.7S. The intrinsic viscosity of DNA was on the average 93.8 dl/g. The average size of the molecular mass determined by the results of sedimentation and viscosimetry was 23.5 X 10(6) daltons which agreed favourably with the value calculated from the data of electron microscopic determination of the length of DNA molecule. The buoyant density of DNA in cesium chloride density gradient was 1.7126 g/cm3. The melting temperatures were 90.5 and 75 degrees C for 1 X SSC and 0.1 X SSC, respectively. Adenovirus type 6 DNA contained 52.6% GC pairs on the average.
