SYNOPSIS. Methods have been developed for the isolation of deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA) from Tetrahymena pyriformis, Polytomella papillata, and Aspergillus tamarii. The DNA from these organisms contained adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C), and the usual base-pairing relationship, i.e., A = T; G = C was found. The ratio A + T/ G + C was 2.42, 1.42, and 1.08 for the DNA of the three organisms respectively. 5-Methylcytosine was absent in all cases.
