Primary processes underlying the photostability of isolated DNA bases: adenine.
The UV chromophores in DNA are the nucleic bases themselves, and it is their photophysics and photochemistry that govern the intrinsic photostability of DNA. Because stability is related to the conversion of dangerous electronic to less-dangerous vibrational energy, we study ultrafast electronic relaxation processes in the DNA base adenine. We excite adenine, isolated in a molecular beam, to it...
متن کاملExcited-state dynamics of isolated DNA bases: a case study of adenine.
We present a summary of recent advances in the understanding of the UV photophysics of the isolated DNA base adenine, emphasizing a discussion of the mechanisms behind the ultrafast relaxation following excitation to the pipi* band. Drawing on our femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy experiments, we discuss differences in the ultrafast relaxation of adenine and 9-methyladenine a...
متن کاملthe underlying structure of language proficiency and the proficiency level
هدف از انجام این تخقیق بررسی رابطه احتمالی بین سطح مهارت زبان خارجی (foreign language proficiency) و ساختار مهارت زبان خارجی بود. تعداد 314 زبان آموز مونث و مذکر که عمدتا دانشجویان رشته های زبان انگلیسی در سطوح کارشناسی و کارشناسی ارشد بودند در این تحقیق شرکت کردند. از لحاظ سطح مهارت زبان خارجی شرکت کنندگان بسیار با هم متفاوت بودند، (75 نفر سطح پیشرفته، 113 نفر سطح متوسط، 126 سطح مقدماتی). کلا ...
15 صفحه اولOxidation of DNA bases by tumor promoter-activated processes.
Evidence has accumulated showing that active oxygen species participate in at least one stage of tumor promotion. Tumor promoters can induce various types of cells to undergo processes that result in formation of active oxygen species. They stimulate polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) to undergo an oxidative burst that is characterized by rapid formation of .O2- and H2O2. We find that in vitro...
متن کاملBiochemical behavior of N-oxidized cytosine and adenine bases in DNA polymerase-mediated primer extension reactions
To clarify the biochemical behavior of 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphates and oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODNs) containing cytosine N-oxide (C(o)) and adenine N-oxide (A(o)), we examined their base recognition ability in DNA duplex formation using melting temperature (T(m)) experiments and their substrate specificity in DNA polymerase-mediated replication. As the result, it was found that t...
