Numerical analysis of thermal denaturation of nucleic acids.
Denaturation of DNA molecules by stepwise incrementation of the temperature leads to melting profiles showing a fine structure, composed of individual melting modes. A method is described by which quantitative physical information brought by the modes can be extracted from the melting profile. Related problems such as data editing and smoothing are also discussed.
