Description

Investigated the DNA tendency to denaturation using Dencity Functional(DFT) Theory method. Presence of the polaric solvents with small polarity index Et - such as ethanol, in the aquatic ambient causes protons transfer between nucleobases pair, which in turn fires DNA denaturation and mutation proceses. Using Software for analysing chemical compounds the tautomeric equilibrium indexes of the nucleobases were calculated. The software was ported on the HPC (NCIT-Cluster) infrastructure.
