Journal Article

Inhibition of ultraviolet light induced skin carcinogenesis in SKH-1 mice by apigenin, a plant flavonoid

TL;DR: Apigenin did not prevent the in vitro production of photoproducts in salmon sperm DNA suggesting that apigen in did not inhibit UVA/B induced ODC activity or UVB induced skin carcinogenesis by simply absorbing ultraviolet light or decreasing DNA damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mimosine inhibits viral dna synthesis through ribonucleotide reductase

TL;DR: It is found that mimosine-treated cells had a reduction in the pools of dGTP and dATP and that Mimosine inhibited ribonucleotide reductase in vitro in an iron-dependent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

An unprecedented nucleic acid capture mechanism for excision of DNA damage

TL;DR: Crystal structures of the recently discovered Bacillus cereus AlkD glycosylase in complex with DNAs containing alkylated, mismatched and abasic nucleotides are presented, providing an illustration for how hydrolysis of N3- and N7-alkylated bases may be facilitated by increased lifetime out of the DNA helix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of DNA with an 8-oxoguanine modification

TL;DR: Thermodynamic studies show that oxoG destabilizes DNA (ΔΔG of 2–8 kcal mol−1 over a 16–116 mM NaCl range) due to a significant reduction in the enthalpy term, and has a profound effect on the level and nature of DNA hydration indicating that the environment around anOxoG•C is fundamentally different than that found at G•C.
