The nuclear effects in the spin-dependent structure functions {ital g}{sup {ital D}}{sub 1} and {ital b}{sup {ital D}}{sub 2} are calculated in the relativistic approach based on the Bethe-Salpeter equation with a realistic meson-exchange potential. The results of calculations are compared with the non-relativistic calculations. The problem of extraction of the neutron spin structure function, {ital g}{sup {ital n}}{sub 1}, from the deuteron data is discussed.
