title: [The causes of hydration changes during DNA protonation].
abstract: Changes of DNA hydration provoked by protonation in the way of Na+- and H+-ions exchange, and in the way of HCl addition to Na+-DNA, were analysed by IR-spectroscopy. Water is shown not to contribute essentially to the formation and stabilization of conformations arising when DNA is protonated. The differences between hydratation of DNA protonated by different ways are in the main accounted for by alteration of the quantities of Na+ and Cl- ions forming the aqueous-salt envelope of polynucleotide.
