title: [Nucleic acid synthesis and spatial organization of DNA in the presence of heparin and the quaternary ammonium salt of the conidin oligomer-25].
abstract: A comparative study of polyconidin effects in the replicative and transcription activity of hepatocyte DNA in intact animals, and on peculiarities of spatial organization DNA in the DNA complex with oligomer-25 conidin was carried out. It was shown that polyconidin binding to DNA results in "cross-linking". This process is accompanied by formation of liquid-crystalline dispersion without abnormal optical activity. Liquid crystals possess high density packing of DNA molecules complexed with quaternary ammonium salt of oligomer-25 conidin. The addition of heparin to liquid-crystalline dispersions or phases, destroys the structure of the DNA complex with quaternary ammonium salt of oligomer-25 conidin. As a result "free" DNA molecules appear, they form the cholesteric liquid-crystalline phase. An increase in transcription activity and synchronization of DNA synthesis in hepatocyte was demonstrated. A correlation between chromatin modification and biological activity of chromatin after formation of the DNA--oligomer-25 conidin complex is proposed.
