Popis: An important problem of molecular biophysics is the influence of pH and ionic strength of a solution on chemical structures and charge of biologically active substances. By means of pH titration and Raman spectroscopy methods, the influence of solution acidity on structural changes of actinocin derivatives was investigated, analogues to antitumor antibiotic actinomycin D. It has been shown that these ligands have different values of cation charges in neutral solutions. From analysis of Raman spectra, it was concluded that protonation of nitrogen atom and amino group of the phenoxazone ring starts only at pH
