| Abstract | Standard free energies ( G) and entropies ( S) of transfer of nucleic acid bases viz. uracil (URA), thymine (THY), cytosine (CYT) and adenine (ADE) from water to aqueous mixtures of lithium chloride, sodium chloride and potassium chloride have been evaluated from solubility measurements at different temperatures. The interaction effect of Gint, as guided by the combined effects of hydrophilic hydration (H1H) of hydrophilic parts and hydrophobic hydration (HbH) of hydrophobic parts of these bases in these ionic cosolvents relative to that in water, have been obtained by subtraction of the cavity effect G, cav (i) as computed by SPT formulations from the corresponding G values. The composition profiles of G and Gint indicate that each of the bases is found to be increasingly desolvated in these aqueous electrolytes save URA and THY at higher compositions of aqueous KCl, their order being KCI < NaCI < LiCI at any of the compositions, as expected from the primary solvation effect of the cations of the ionic cosolvents. The observed T Sand TS, int (i)-composition profiles are, however, found to be dictated by the relative 3D structure breaking effect as well as the relative H1HbH effect, induced by these ionic cosolvents. The observed increased desolvation of the bases reflect that the intramolecular H-bonds between the bases of the double strands of DNA/RNA helices are likely to get strengthened in these ionic cosolvent systems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
