The Influence of 5′,8-Cyclo-2′-Deoxyguanosine on ds-DNA Charge Transfer Depends on Its Diastereomeric Form: A Theoretical Study [PDF]
The genetic information stored in the nucleobase sequence is continuously exposed to harmful extra- and intra-cellular factors, which can lead to different types of DNA damage, with more than 70 lesion types identified so far.

How (5′S) and (5′R) 5′,8-Cyclo-2′-Deoxypurines Affect Base Excision Repair of Clustered DNA Damage in Nuclear Extracts of xrs5 Cells? A Biochemical Study [PDF]
The clustered DNA lesions (CDLs) are a characteristic feature of ionizing radiation’s impact on the human genetic material. CDLs impair the efficiency of cellular repair machinery, especially base excision repair (BER).

The association constant of 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxyguanosine with cytidine [PDF]
The association of 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cdG), a DNA tandem lesion, with its complementary base cytosine has been studied by voltammetry and NMR in chloroform, using properly silylated derivatives of the two nucleobases for increasing their ...

When UDG and hAPE1 Meet Cyclopurines. How (5'R) and (5'S) 5',8-Cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine and 5',8-Cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine Affect UDG and hAPE1 Activity? [PDF]
Ionizing radiation is a factor that seriously damages cellular mechanisms/macromolecules, e.g., by inducing damage in the human genome, such as 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxypurines (cdPus).

The Influence of 5'R and 5'S cdA and cdG on the Activity of BsmAI and SspI Restriction Enzymes. [PDF]
Restriction endonucleases (REs) are intra-bacterial scissors that are considered tools in the fight against foreign genetic material. SspI and BsmAI, examined in this study, cleave dsDNA at their site of recognition or within a short distance of it. Both

An ameliorative protocol for the quantification of purine 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxynucleosides in oxidized DNA. [PDF]
5',8-Cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cdA) and 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cdG) are lesions resulting from hydroxyl radical (HO•) attack on the 5'H of the nucleoside sugar moiety and exist in both 5'R and 5'S diastereomeric forms.
