dc.descriptionWe consider cholesteric liquid-crystalline DNA dispersions, and show that polymeric (Dau-Cu) complexes, the so-called bridges, between pairs of DNA molecules may generate a super liquid-crystalline structure (BR-phase). The latter could have a layered spatial structure and an abnormal optical activity that could have a bearing upon the intense CD-band observed in DNA-dispersions.
