Abstract
The circular dichroism of supercoiled DNA has been calculated as a function of superhelix density using the exciton and free-electron models. The two models agree with each other, and with experiment, at large negative superhelix densities, but disagrees at lower superhelix densities. The reasons are discussed in terms of the role of chiral torsion.
