Journal ArticleDOI

Insertion of specific bases during DNA synthesis past the oxidation-damaged base 8-oxodG.

TL;DR: DCMP and dAMP are incorporated selectively opposite 8-oxodG with transient inhibition of chain extension occurring 3' to the modified base, and the potentially mutagenic insertion of dAMP is targeted exclusively to the site of the lesion.
Journal ArticleDOI

8-oxoguanine (8-hydroxyguanine) DNA glycosylase and its substrate specificity.

TL;DR: 8-oxodG DNA is the primary physiological substrate for a constituent glycosylase found in bacteria and mammalian cells, and it is proposed that the existence of a bacterial gene coding for FPG protein is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aristolochic acid and the etiology of endemic (Balkan) nephropathy

TL;DR: The experiments test the hypothesis that chronic dietary poisoning by aristolochic acid is responsible for EN and its associated urothelial cancer and conclude that dietary exposure to AA is a significant risk factor for ENand its attendant transitional cell cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate specificity of Fpg protein. Recognition and cleavage of oxidatively damaged DNA.

TL;DR: Data suggest that the C8 keto group of 8-oxodeoxyguanine and the carbonyl moiety of formamidopyrimidine enable Fpg protein to recognize and bind duplex DNA containing these modified bases.
Journal ArticleDOI

NMR structural studies of the ionizing radiation adduct 7-hydro-8-oxodeoxyguanosine (8-oxo-7H-dG) opposite deoxyadenosine in a DNA duplex. 8-Oxo-7H-dG(syn).cntdot.dA(anti) alignment at lesion site

TL;DR: The present study focuses on the major component of the equilibrium that originates in the 6,8-dioxo tautomer of 8-oxo-7H-dG, which contains a centrally located 7-hydro-8-oxodeoxyguanosine residue, a group commonly found in DNA that has been exposed to ionizing radiation or oxidizing free radicals.
