Abstract:
A two-component model is proposed to describe the conformational dynamics of DNA macromolecule. A hypothesis on the mechanism of long-distance action transfer in DNA by local conformational transitions is presented. The conditions under which local transitions of B-A type are transmitted along a DNA chain are established.
