Novel insights into a major DNA oxidative lesion: its effects on Z-DNA stabilization

Org Biomol Chem. 2015 Sep 14;13(34):8996-9. doi: 10.1039/c5ob01340b. Epub 2015 Aug 5.

Abstract

Here, we have provided novel insights into the effects of 8-oxodG substitutions on B-Z transitions of CpG dinucleotide DNAs. A combination of different techniques including a CD study, a PAGE analysis, DFT calculations and molecular modeling has been collectively used.
