Acceleration of the Deamination of Cytosine through Photo-Crosslinking
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023 Herein, we report the major factor for deamination reaction rate acceleration, i.e., hydrophilicity, by using various 5-substituted target cytosines and by carrying out deamination at high temperatures.

Non-Canonical GC Base Pairs and Mechanochemical Cleavage of DNA [PDF]
, 2019 Properties of non-canonical GC Base Pairs and their relation with mechanochemical cleavage of DNA are analyzed. A hypothesis of the involvement of the Transient GC Wobble Base Pairs in the mechanisms of the mechanochemical cleavage of DNA and epigenetic mechanisms with participation of 5-methylcytosine is proposed.

Surface-Enhanced Hyper-Raman Spectra of Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil
The journal of physical chemistry. C, Nanomaterials and interfaces, 2016 Using picosecond excitation at 1064 nm, surface-enhanced hyper-Raman scattering (SEHRS) spectra of the nucleobases adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil with two different types of silver nanoparticles were obtained. Comparing the SEHRS spectra

Discovery of Bacterial Deaminases That Convert 5-Fluoroisocytosine Into 5-Fluorouracil
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Cytosine is one of the four letters of a standard genetic code, found both in DNA and in RNA. This heterocyclic base can be converted into uracil upon the action of the well-known cytosine deaminase.

Shape resonance induced electron attachment to Cytosine: The effect of aqueous media [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We have investigated the impact of microsolvation on the shape resonance states of nucleobases, taking cytosine as a case study. To characterize the resonance position and decay width of the metastable states, we employed the newly developed DLPNO-based EA-EOMCCSD method in conjunction with resonance via Pad\'e approximation. Our calculations show that
