Abstract excerpt
In our experiments we found that hydroxylation occurs at the C-2 position of adenine by oxygen radical treatment (Fe(2+)-EDTA) of dA, dATP, and single- and double-stranded DNA. This oxidatively damaged base, 2-hydroxyadenine (also known as isoguanine), was produced more efficiently in monomers than in polynucleotides. 2-Hydroxydeoxyadenosine triphosphate was incorporated opposite T and C in a DNA template by DNA...
