Clustered DNA Damage: Electronic Properties and Their Influence on Charge Transfer. 7,8-Dihydro-8-Oxo-2′-Deoxyguaosine Versus 5′,8-Cyclo-2′-Deoxyadenosines: A Theoretical Approach

Approximately 3 &#215; 10<sup>17</sup> DNA damage events take place per hour in the human body. Within clustered DNA lesions, they pose a serious problem for repair proteins, especially for iron&#8722;sulfur glycosylases (MutyH), which can recognize them by the electron-transfer...
