Equlibrim and Kinectics of thermal melting of yeast 5s ribosomal RNA in aqueous NaCL with or without mg22+were invisticated by differential thermal melting and temperature jump methods. Two peaks(1 and 2)and a shoulder were between each of melting curves at ionoic strenth i-0.002-0.5 and linerity -free solutions.The local structres were found to be stablized considerably by Mg 2+. the tempreature jump measurements gave the Kinetic melting curve of the structure 1 at i-0.0.3 without Mg2+or with 0.5 mMMg2+.The kinetic Tm coincided well with the corresponding static Tm.For the structure l.various parameters wee calculated form the kinetic data, which indicated a double helical character of the structure i.in the terms of the values of Tm, G-C content, and enthapy change of the transition of the structure models of eukaryotic 5s RNA propesed priveiously was discussed
