Abstract
Three new cholesterol-containing phosphoramidites where synthesized and use d in automated synthesis of modified DNA fragments. These cholesterol lesio ns are good substrates for the E. coil UvrABC endonuclease. In vitro they a re incised from damaged DNA with higher efficiency in respect with the chol esterol lesions previously published.
