[Correlation between the species radiosensitivity of animals and concentration of AT-rich sequences in DNA].
The authors have revealed a positive and statistically significant correlation between the sum of T-"pure" and T-rich pyrimidine DNA clusters and radiosensitivity of animals of different species. It was demonstrated that the share of a DNA fraction rich in AT-pairs and denaturing within the temperature range from 55 to 75 degrees increases with increasing specific radiosensitivity of animals.
