The association constant of 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxyguanosine with cytidine
نویسندگان
چکیده
The association of 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cdG), a DNA tandem lesion, with its complementary base cytosine has been studied by voltammetry and NMR in chloroform, using properly silylated derivatives of the two nucleobases for increasing their solubilities. Both voltammetric data and NMR titrations indicated that the Watson-Crick complex of cytidine with cdG is weaker than that with guanosine, the difference being approximately of one order of magnitude between the two association constants.

Radiation-induced formation of purine lesions in single and double stranded DNA: revised quantification
The formation of oxidative lesions arising from double stranded DNA damage is of major significance to chemical biology from the perspective of application to human health. The quantification of purine lesions arising from γ-radiation-induced hydroxyl radicals (HO(•)) has been the subject of numerous studies, with discrepancies on the measured 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cdA) and 5',8-cyclo-2...

The phosphorylation of nucleosides (adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, and uridine) and nucleotides (adenosine 5'-monophosphate, guanosine 5'-monophosphate, cytidine 5'-monophosphate and uridine 5'-monophosphate) has been achieved using inorganic monoimido-cyclo-triphosphate (MCTP, Na(3)P(3)O(8)NH) in aqueous solution. In this reaction, the 2'-OH or 3'-OH group of the beta-D-ribofuranose unit was ...

Exogenously and endogenously produced reactive oxygen species attack the base and sugar moieties of DNA showing a preference for reaction at 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) sites. In the present work, dG was oxidized by HO(•) via the Fe(II)-Fenton reaction or by X-ray radiolysis of water. The oxidized lesions observed include the 2'-deoxynucleosides of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (dOG), spiroiminodihydanto...

Pools of uridine triphosphate and cytidine triphosphate are greatly (90%) reduced in cultured L1210 cells exposed to N(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate (PALA) or pyrazofurin; the con centration of the deoxynucleotides deoxycytidine triphosphate, deoxythymidine triphosphate, and deoxyguanosine triphos phate also decreases, but deoxyadenosine triphosphate pools are enlarged. Associated with these pool...
