["External chromophores" and intensive bands in circular dichroism spectra of liquid-crystalline microphases of nucleic acids].

From the analysis of CD-spectra of liquid crystalline microphases formed from DNA molecules in complexes with "external chromophores" requirements are formulated for the compounds to be used in revealing peculiarities of spatial structure of nucleic acids liquid crystalline microphases. These requirements satisfied it is possible to record the CD-spectra having intensive bands in the regions of chromophores absorption. These bands prove the helical pattern of the spatial structure of nucleic acid liquid crystalline microphase.
