8-OxoG in GC-rich Sp1 binding sites enhances gene transcription in adipose tissue of juvenile mice
30 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
The oxidation of guanine to 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is the most common type of oxidative DNA lesion. There is a growing body of evidence indicating that 8-oxoG is not only pre-mutagenic, but also plays an essential role in modulating gene expression along with its cognate repair proteins. In this study, we investigated the relationship between 8-oxoG formed under intrinsic oxidative stress conditions and gene...
