Abstract excerpt
Conformations of the trans adduct of (+)-anti-benzo[a]pyrene -7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide (BPDE) to N2-guanine, the major stable DNA adduct of the environmental carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene, were studied as a function of flanking bases in single-stranded and in double-stranded oligonucleotides. Three 11mer oligonucleotides d(CTAT-G1G2G3TATC) were synthesized containing the (+)-trans-anti-BPDE adduct at one specific...
