Radical-induced purine lesion formation is dependent on DNA helical topology

open access: yesFree radical research, 2016
Herein we report the quantification of purine lesions arising from gamma-radiation sourced hydroxyl radicals (HO•) on tertiary dsDNA helical forms of supercoiled (SC), open circular (OC), and linear (L) conformation, along with single-stranded folded and

Novel Antitumoral Strategies Inducing Membrane Lipid and DNA Damage:Artificial Chemical Nucleases & the ‘ClickGene’ Project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This PhD project was carried out within the frame of a Marie Curie Network with the acronym ‘ClickGene’, which focuses on the development of next-generation gene silencing therapeutics, such as the artificial metallo-nucleases (AMNs).

Metabolic Network Analysis of Filamentous Cyanobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cyanobacteria were the first organisms to use oxygenic photosynthesis, converting CO2 into useful organic chemicals. However, the chemical industry has historically relied on fossil raw materials to produce organic precursors, which has contributed to ...

Chemistry meets biology in colitis-associated carcinogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The intestine comprises an exceptional venue for a dynamic and complex interplay of numerous chemical and biological processes. Here, multiple chemical and biological systems, including the intestinal tissue itself, its associated immune system, the gut ...

(5′S)-8,5′-Cyclo-2′-deoxyguanosine Is a Strong Block to Replication, a Potent pol V-Dependent Mutagenic Lesion, and Is Inefficiently Repaired in Escherichia coli

open access: yesBiochemistry, 2011
8,5′-Cyclopurines, making up an important class of ionizing radiation-induced tandem DNA damage, are repaired only by nucleotide excision repair (NER).

Electron-Induced Repair of 2′-Deoxyribose Sugar Radicals in DNA: A Density Functional Theory (DFT) Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
In this work, we used ωB97XD density functional and 6-31++G** basis set to study the structure, electron affinity, populations via Boltzmann distribution, and one-electron reduction potentials (E°) of 2′-deoxyribose sugar radicals in aqueous phase by ...

The Influence of Single, Tandem, and Clustered DNA Damage on the Electronic Properties of the Double Helix: A Theoretical Study

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Oxidatively generated damage to DNA frequently appears in the human genome as the effect of aerobic metabolism or as the result of exposure to exogenous oxidizing agents, such as ionization radiation.

Products of Oxidative Guanine Damage Form Base Pairs with Guanine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Among the natural bases, guanine is the most oxidizable base. The damage caused by oxidation of guanine, commonly referred to as oxidative guanine damage, results in the formation of several products, including 2,5-diamino-4H-imidazol-4-one (Iz), 2,2,4 ...
