T. Melvin et al., MIGRATION OF PHOTOINDUCED OXIDATIVE DAMAGE IN MODELS FOR DNA, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (6), 1995, pp. 653-654
Laser flash photolysis with 193 nm light of single stranded oligodeoxy
nucleotides in aqueous solution indicates that the photoinduced radica
l cation of adenine or cytosine migrates to guanine, whereas the oxida
tive damage is not transferred from adenine to either cytosine or guan
ine via a cytosine linker.
