[Features of the process of chromatin denaturation in leukemic tissue and murine spleen cells].

It was shown by the method of differential scanning microcalorimetry that an additional peak, at about 57 degrees C appears on heat absorption curves of the whole spleen tissue and cells of BalB/c mouse injected with Rausher virus. It is supposed that this peak is due to the melting of AT-rich regions of internucleosomal DNA in chromatin fibers of tumor cells, which results from the partial loss of proteins or the modification of H1 histone.

[Different character of zinc ion binding with lactate dehydrogenase M4 in diluted and concentrated solutions].

The study of the melting characteristics of lactate dehydrogenase M4 and Zn/lactate dehydrogenase at pH 6.5-8.5 by microcalorimetric methods shows that in dilute solutions of the enzyme (0.
