Abstract excerpt
Oxidative DNA damage has been linked to inflammation, cancer, and aging. Here, we have mapped two types of oxidative DNA damage, oxidized guanines produced by hydrogen peroxide and oxidized thymines created by potassium permanganate, at a single-base resolution. 8-Oxo-guanine occurs strictly dependent on the G/C sequence context and shows a pronounced peak at transcription start sites (TSSs). We determined the...
