Isotherms of the binding of the anthracycIine antibiotic, adriamycin
(adriblastin), to DNA histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic
analysis. The results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones
reduced the interaction of histones with DNA, (b) binding of the drug to DNA
did not change the binding affinity of histone to DNA and, (c) in the explored
binding range of r
