[Determination of the interaction of oligopeptides and oligonucleotides by a chromatographic technique (author's transl)].

Homologues of deoxyriboadenylic and deoxyribothymidylic acid show different degrees of retardation in a pentalysine gel. This chromatographic retardation is directly related to the strength of the interaction between the oligonucleotides and the immobilized pentalysine peptide residues. The strength of this interaction is determined by the total negative charge of the oligonucleotide, and by the nature of the constituent base of the oligonucleotide. The specificity of the interaction depends upon differences in conformation of the oligonucleotides.
