Abstract excerpt
To reveal the molecular mechanisms of genotoxic effects of oxidation and irradiation, molecular mechanics computations were performed for double-helical olygonucleotides with 8-oxoguanine:adenine (OG.A) pairs in two configurations. Substitution of a T.A pair by OG(syn).A one results in minor changes of intramolecular interaction energy and of the conformational parameters of helixes. Nearly all the interproton...
