title: [Study of specific interactions of amino acid esters with the synthetic polynucleotides poly(A) x 2 poly(U), poly(A) x poly(U) and poly(A) by thermal denaturation].
abstract: The interactions of amino acid esters with poly(A)x2poly(U) and poly(A)xpoly(U) have been investigated by means of thermal denaturation of these polynucleotides. The esters under consideration raised the melting point, revealing the preferable binding to helical polynucleotide structures. The melting point shifts demonstrate the following sequence of the stabilities of these complexes: Arg greater than Lys much greater than His greater than Met greater than Ser greater than Gly. The same stability order is observed when studying the polynucleotide renaturation in the presence of esters. This order coincides with that previously obtained for the nucleotide base--amino acid ester complexes excepting basic amino acid esters. The ester interactions with poly(A) and poly(U) also reveal the specificity of monomer--monomer interactions. Some dynamic contributions into the studied specificity are also discussed.
