Abstract
Light is one way to excite an electron in biology. Another is chemiexcitation, birthing a reaction product in an electronically excited state rather than exciting from the ground state. Chemiexcited molecules, as in bioluminescence, can release more energy than ATP. Excited states also allow bond rearrangements forbidden in ground states. Molecules with low-lying unoccupied orbitals, abundant in biology, are particularly susceptible. In mammals, chemiexcitation was discovered to transfer energy from excited melanin, neurotransmitters, or hormones to DNA, creating the lethal and carcinogenic cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer. That process was initiated by nitric oxide and superoxide, radicals triggered by ultraviolet light or inflammation. Several poorly understood chronic diseases share two properties: inflammation generates those radicals across the tissue, and cells that die are those containing melanin or neuromelanin. Chemiexcitation may therefore be a pathogenic event in noise- and drug-induced deafness, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's; it may prevent macular degeneration early in life but turn pathogenic later. Beneficial evolutionary selection for excitable biomolecules may thus have conferred an Achilles heel. This review of recent findings on chemiexcitation in mammalian cells also describes the underlying physics, biochemistry, and potential pathogenesis, with the goal of making this interdisciplinary phenomenon accessible to researchers within each field.

Abstract
The significant role of hydrogen abstraction in chemistry and biology has inspired many theoretical works to link its practical phenomena and mechanistic properties. Here, the photophysical processes and hydrogen abstraction mechanisms of benzophenone (BZP) photosensitized thymine damage were systematically investigated from theoretical principles. It was found that the BZP photosensitizer upon UV irradiation undergoes vertical excitation, internal conversion, vibrational relaxation and intersystem crossing into a triplet excited state. Then the triplet BZP damages thymine by a hydrogen abstraction process. However, the reverse reaction easily occurs due to the lower reaction energy, which causes a low yield of hydrogen abstraction products. We hope this comprehensive work can provide a deeper understanding of photosensitive DNA damage from hydrogen abstraction.

Abstract
Dioxetane intermediates readily decompose to chemiluminescent triplet carbonyls, giving rise to what has been paradoxically called photochemistry in the dark. In this issue of Photochemistry and Photobiology, Bechara et al. report on mechanistic advances in such a reaction. With the use of horseradish peroxidase for isobutyraldehyde-derived triplet acetone, light emission from acetone and singlet oxygen can be quenched. The experiments reveal that the reaction depends on oxygen and the amino acid. The analysis reveals that free tryptophan is a target of this form of "carbonyl stress," with the efficient formation of mono-, bi- and tricyclic compounds (N-formylkynurenine, indoline, 1λ2 -indole and 3H-indoles).

Abstract
Herein, we examine the photochemical formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by a porous benzophenone-containing bis-urea host (1) to investigate the mechanism of photooxidations that occur within the confines of its nanochannels. UV irradiation of the self-assembled host in the presence of molecular oxygen generates both singlet oxygen and superoxide when suspended in solution. The efficiency of ROS generation by the host is lower than that of benzophenone (BP), which could be beneficial for reactions carried out catalytically, as ROS species react quickly and often unselectively. Superoxide formation was detected through reaction with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide in the presence of methanol. However, it is not detected in CHCl3, as it reacts rapidly with the solvent to generate methaneperoxy and chloride anions, similar to BP. The lifetime of airborne singlet oxygen (τΔairborne) was examined at the air-solid outer surface of the host and host·quencher complexes and suggests that quenching is a surface phenomenon. The efficiency of the host and BP as catalysts was compared for the photooxidation of 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene in solution. Both the host and BP mediate the photooxidation in CHCl3, benzene, and benzene-d 6, producing primarily epoxide-derived products with low selectivity likely by both type I and type II photooxidation processes. Interestingly, in CHCl3, two chlorohydrins were also formed, reflecting the formation of chloride in this solvent. In contrast, UV irradiation of the host·guest crystals in an oxygen atmosphere produced no epoxide and appeared to favor mainly the type II processes. Photolysis afforded high conversion to only three products: an enone, a tertiary allylic alcohol, and a diol, which demonstrates the accessibility of the encapsulated reactants to oxygen and the influence of confinement on the reaction pathway.

Abstract
Bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) and its composites have good electrocatalytic performance. Quartz column is a good kind of catalyst carrier with the characteristics of high mechanical strength and good stability. A novel Bi-modified quartz column particle electrode (BQP) was prepared by the dipping-calcination method. The characterization results revealed that Bi2O3was successfully loaded on quartz column. The optimum preparation condition was calcining at 550°C for 4 h. Electrocatalytic performance was evaluated by the degradation of phenol and the results indicated that the triclinic phase of Bi2O3showed the best electrocatalytic property. Besides, when the dosage concentration of the particle electrode was 125 g/L and the electrolytic voltage was 12 V, the degradation rate of phenol (200 mg/L) reached the highest (94.25%), compared with 70.00% of that in two-dimensional (2D) system. In addition, the removal rate of chemical oxygen demand (COD) was 75.50%, compared with 53.30% of that in 2D system. The reusability and regeneration of BQP were investigated and the results were good. Mechanism of enhanced electrochemical oxidation by BQP was evaluated by the capture of hydroxyl radical.

Abstract
Oxidative damage to purine nucleic acid bases proceeds through quinoidal intermediates derived from their corresponding 8-oxo-7,8-dihydropurine bases. Oxidation studies of 8-oxo-7,8-dihyroadenosine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroinosine indicate that these quinoidal species can produce stable cross-links with a wide variety of nucleophiles in the 2-positions of the purines. An azide precursor for the adenosine iminoquinone has been synthesized and applied in ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopic studies. Thus, the adenosine iminoquinone can be observed directly, and its susceptibility to nucleophilic attack with various nucleophiles as well as the stability of the resulting cross-linked species have been evaluated. Finally, these observations indicate that this azide might be a very useful photoaffinity labeling agent, because the reactive intermediate, adenosine iminoquinone, is such a good mimic for the universal purine base adenosine.

Abstract
Although the carcinogenic potential of ultraviolet radiation is well-known, UV light may interact with DNA by direct absorption or through photosensitization by endogenous or exogenous chromophores. These chromophores can extend the "active" fraction of the solar spectrum to the UVA region and beyond, which means that photosensitizers increase the probability of developing skin cancer upon exposure to sunlight. Therefore researchers would like to understand the mechanisms involved in photosensitized DNA damage both to anticipate possible photobiological risks and to design tailor-made photoprotection strategies. In this context, photosensitized DNA damage can occur through a variety of processes including electron transfer, hydrogen abstraction, triplet-triplet energy transfer, or generation of reactive oxygen species. In this Account, we have chosen benzophenone (BP) as a classical and paradigmatic chromophore to illustrate the different lesions that photosensitization may prompt in nucleosides, in oligonucleotides, or in DNA. Thus, we discuss in detail the accumulated mechanistic evidence of the BP-photosensitized reactions of DNA or its building blocks obtained by our group and others. We also include ketoprofen (KP), a BP-derivative that possesses a chiral center, to highlight the stereodifferentiation in the key photochemical events, revealed through the dynamics of the reactive triplet excited state ((3)KP*). Our results show that irradiation of the BP chromophore in the presence of DNA or its components leads to nucleobase oxidations, cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer formation, single strand breaks, DNA-protein cross-links, or abasic sites. We attribute the manifold photoreactivity of BP to its well established photophysical properties: (i) it absorbs UV light, up to 360 nm; (ii) its intersystem crossing quantum yield (ϕ(ISC)) is almost 1; (iii) the energy of its nπ* lowest triplet excited state (E(T)) is ca. 290 kJ mol(-1); (iv) it produces singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) with a quantum yield (ϕ(Δ)) of ca. 0.3. For electron transfer and singlet oxygen reactions, we focused on guanine, the nucleobase with the lowest oxidation potential. Among the possible oxidative processes, electron transfer predominates. Conversely, triplet-triplet energy transfer occurs mainly from (3)BP* to thymine, the base with the lowest lying triplet state in DNA. This process results in the formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, but it also competes with the Paternò-Büchi reaction in nucleobases or nucleosides, giving rise to oxetanes as a result of crossed cycloadditions. Interestingly, we have found significant stereodifferentiation in the quenching of the KP triplet excited state by both 2'-deoxyguanosine and thymidine. Based on these results, this chromophore shows potential as a (chiral) probe for the investigation of electron and triplet energy transport in DNA.

Abstract
Biosubstrate-sensitizer binding is one of the factors that enhances the type-I mechanism over the type-II in the whole photodynamic process. 2,7,12,17-Tetraphenylporphycene (TPPo), a second-generation photosensitizer, is a hydrophobic compound with good photophysical properties for photodynamic therapy applications that has proved its ability for the photoinactivation of different cell lines. Nevertheless, little is known about its mechanism of action. This paper focuses on the study of the interaction/binding of TPPo with different model biomolecules that may favor the type-I mechanism in the overall photodynamic process, including nucleosides, proteins, and phospholipids. Compared with more hydrophilic photosensitizers, it is concluded that TPPo is more likely to undergo type-II (singlet oxygen) than type-I (electron transfer) photodynamic processes in biological environments.

Abstract
Tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase-1 (TDP1) is the gene product mutated in spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy1 (SCAN1). SCAN1 is a hereditary ataxia that lacks extra-neurological phenotype, pointing to a critical role for TDP1 in the nervous system. Recently, we showed that TDP1 is associated with the DNA single-strand break (SSBR) repair machinery through an interaction with DNA ligase 3alpha (Lig3alpha) and that SCAN1 cells are defective in the repair of chromosomal DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs) arising from abortive Topoisomerase 1 (Top1)-DNA intermediates. Here we demonstrate that TDP1 is also required for the repair of SSBs induced by ionizing radiation (IR), though not measurably for IR-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). In addition, we provide evidence that abortive Top1 cleavage complexes are processed by the proteasome prior to the action of TDP1 in vivo, and we exploit this observation to show that the SSBR defect in SCAN1 following IR reflects, in part at least, the presence of IR-induced protein-DNA cross-links. Finally we show that TDP1 activity at abortive Top1-SSBs is stimulated by XRCC1/Lig3alpha in vitro. These data expand the type of SSBs processed by TDP1 to include those induced by ionizing radiation, and raise the possibility that TDP1 inhibitors may improve radiotherapy.

Abstract
5-Guanidino-4-nitroimidazole is a stable product from the peroxynitrite induced one-electron oxidation of guanine. Reaction mechanisms to form the 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole as well as 8-nitroguanine, through the combination of the guanine radical cation and nitrogen dioxide radical and through the combination of the deprotonated neutral guanine radical and nitrogen dioxide radical, have been investigated by the use of the B3LYP method of density functional theory. Our calculations suggest that the guanine radical cation mechanism is preferred over the neutral guanine radical mechanism and that a water molecule is involved in the reaction as a catalyst or as a reactant.

Abstract
Defects in the XPD gene can result in several clinical phenotypes, including xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), trichothiodystrophy, and, less frequently, the combined phenotype of XP and Cockayne syndrome (XP-D/CS). We previously showed that in cells from two XP-D/CS patients, breaks were introduced into cellular DNA on exposure to UV damage, but these breaks were not at the sites of the damage. In the present work, we show that three further XP-D/CS patients show the same peculiar breakage phenomenon. We show that these breaks can be visualized inside the cells by immunofluorescence using antibodies to either gamma-H2AX or poly-ADP-ribose and that they can be generated by the introduction of plasmids harboring methylation or oxidative damage as well as by UV photoproducts. Inhibition of RNA polymerase II transcription by four different inhibitors dramatically reduced the number of UV-induced breaks. Furthermore, the breaks were dependent on the nucleotide excision repair (NER) machinery. These data are consistent with our hypothesis that the NER machinery introduces the breaks at sites of transcription initiation. During transcription in UV-irradiated XP-D/CS cells, phosphorylation of the carboxy-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II occurred normally, but the elongating form of the polymerase remained blocked at lesions and was eventually degraded.

Abstract
An 8-(13)C-labeled guanosine derivative, 2',3',5'-O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-N-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-8-(13)C-guanosine, was synthesized and its photosensitized oxidation with singlet oxygen carried out below -100 degrees C. Two transient intermediates that decompose directly to the final major product 5 and CO(2) were detected by (13)C NMR between -100 and -43 degrees C. The two intermediates are carbamic acids based on (13)C NMR and 2D NMR (HMQC, HMBC) spectra and the formation of final product 5 and of 8-CO(2). No endoperoxide intermediate could be detected by low-temperature NMR spectroscopy even at -100 degrees C. A reaction mechanism is proposed involving initial [4 + 2] cycloaddition of singlet oxygen to the imidazole ring to form an unstable endoperoxide, subsequent rearrangement of the endoperoxide to a dioxirane, and decomposition of the dioxirane to the two observed intermediates. Both oxygen atoms of CO(2) are derived from a single oxygen molecule, which strongly supports a dioxirane structure for the precursor of the two observed intermediates. The distribution of products estimated by (13)C NMR accounts for all the (13)C-containing products in the reaction mixture.

Abstract
The photooxidation of 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) and its derivative 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) by a series of acetophenones (AP-X) and benzophenone (BP) has been studied. The favorable absorption characteristics of the benzoyl chromophore enables time-resolved spectroscopy of the triplet ketones to assess their quenching kinetics by dG and 8-oxodG. Whereas the photolysis of acetophenone (AP), 2-acetoxyacetophenone (AP-OAc), and benzophenone (BP) does not produce radicals (group A ketones), the oxymethyl-substituted derivatives 2-hydroxyacetophenone (AP-OH) and 2-tert-butoxyacetophenone (AP-O(t)Bu) lead to carbon-centered radicals by alpha cleavage (group B ketones). For the latter ketones, this was confirmed by EPR studies with the spin trap 5,5-dimethylpyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) and by their triplet lifetimes that were shorter than those for the unsubstituted acetophenone. Both groups of ketones photooxidize dG and 8-oxodG; the oxidation products are spiroiminodihydantoin and guanidine-releasing products (GRP) in the case of dG and AP-OH also 8-oxodG. In the presence of O(2), the photooxidation by the group A ketones is efficient at high dG or 8-oxodG concentrations, whereas the group B ketones photooxidize dG and 8-oxodG also at low substrate concentrations. These results imply that peroxyl radicals are responsible for the photooxidation by the group B ketones, which are formed by alpha cleavage of the triplet ketone and subsequent O(2) trapping of the carbon-centered radicals. At higher dG concentrations, direct electron transfer from dG to the triplet ketone, as observed for the group A ketones, competes with the radical activity.

Abstract
Furocoumarins (psoralens) undergo photolysis when subjected to UVA radiation in solution. Several products are formed, depending on the molecular structure and experimental conditions. Some products are the result of anoxic mechanisms (cyclodimerisation, addition of solvent), others of oxic pathways, leading to oxidised products. The mechanisms thought to underlie photolysis are described and the possible biological relevance of the photoproducts and intermediates is discussed.

Abstract
We developed a facile, cost-effective competitive binding assay for the analysis of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) in DNA, using a polyclonal rabbit antiserum raised against an 8-oxodGuo hapten coupled to bovine serum albumin and radiolabeled synthetic ligand containing multiple 8-oxodGuo residues. This radioimmunoassay (RIA) displays a high affinity for 8-oxodGuo in DNA, with a detection limit of approximately 1 adduct in 10(5) bases of DNA. 8-oxodGuo standards for RIA were quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection in DNA diluted in methylene blue and exposed to visible light. As an initial application we quantified 8-oxodGuo in dosimeters deployed at increasing depths in the Southern Ocean during the austral spring of the 1998 field season or at the surface at Palmer Station, Antarctica, throughout the 1999 field season. Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) were quantified using an established RIA. We found that the frequency of both photoproducts decreased with depth. However, CPD induction was attenuated at a faster rate than 8-oxodGuo, correlating with the differential attenuation of solar ultraviolet wavelengths in the water column. CPD induction was closely related with ultraviolet-B radiation (UVB) attenuation, whereas the lower attenuation of 8-oxodGuo suggests that oxidative damage is more closely related to ultraviolet-A radiation (UVA) irradiance. The ratio of 8-oxodGuo: CPD was also found to covary with changes in stratospheric ozone concentrations at Palmer Station. These data demonstrate the usefulness of these assays for environmental photobiology and the potential for their use in studying the relative impacts of UVB versus UVA, including ozone depletion events.

Abstract
The photooxidative damage of DNA, specifically guanine oxidation and strand-break formation, by sidechain-oxyfunctionalized acetophenones (hydroxy, methoxy, tert-butoxy and acetoxy derivatives), has been examined. The involvement of triplet-excited ketones and their reactivity towards DNA has been determined by time-resolved laser-flash spectroscopy. The generation of carbon-centered radical species upon Norrish-type I cleavage has been assessed by spin-trapping experiments with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide, coupled with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The observed DNA-base oxidation and strand-break formation is discussed in terms of the peroxyl radicals derived from the triplet-excited ketones by alpha cleavage and molecular oxygen trapping, as well as direct interaction of the excited states by electron transfer and hydrogen-atom abstraction. It is concluded that acetophenone derivatives, which produce radicals upon photolysis, in particular the hydroxy (AP-OH) and tert-butoxy (AP-O(t)Bu) derivatives, are more effective in oxidizing DNA.

Abstract
Use of one-electron oxidants such as Na(2)IrCl(6) to oxidize 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (OG) residues in oligodeoxynucleotides was previously shown to lead to predominant formation of a base lesion of mass M - 10 compared to starting material [Duarte et al. (1999) Nucleic Acids Res. 27, 596-502]. To thoroughly characterize the structure of this lesion, the oxidation of the nucleoside 9-N-(2',3',5'-tri-O-acetyl-beta-D-erythro-pentanosyl)-8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine with one-electron oxidants at pH 2-4 was used as a model for duplex DNA oxidation of OG residues. (1)H NMR and H,H COSY NMR studies in CD(3)OD along with LC-ESI-MS/MS fragmentation analysis are consistent with the assignment of the M - 10 species as a mixture of two pH-dependent equilibrating isomers, a guanidinohydantoin (Gh) and an iminoallantoin (Ia) nucleoside, both present as mixtures of epimers at the C5 position of the hydantoin ring, i.e., four total isomers are formed. The Gh/Ia mixture is formed from hydration and decarboxylation of the initially formed intermediate 5-hydroxy-8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine, a species that is also produced by four-electron oxidation (e.g., singlet oxygen) of guanosine. The product mixture can be further oxidized to a species designated Ia(ox), a hydrolytically unstable material at pH 7 that has been characterized by ESI-MS and (1)H NMR. Competition studies with 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroadenosine placed the redox potential of Gh/Ia at about 1.0 V vs NHE. These studies provide important information concerning the structures of lesions obtained when OG, a "hot spot" for oxidative damage, serves as a "hole trap" in long-range electron-transfer studies.

Abstract
8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), induced by reactive oxygen species and arguably one of the most important mutagenic DNA lesions, is prone to further oxidation. Its one-electron oxidation products include potentially mutagenic guanidinohydantoin (Gh) and spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) because of their mispairing with A or G. All three oxidized base-specific DNA glycosylases of Escherichia coli, namely endonuclease III (Nth), 8-oxoG-DNA glycosylase (MutM) and endonuclease VIII (Nei), excise Gh and Sp, when paired with C or G in DNA, although Nth is less active than the other two. MutM prefers Sp and Gh paired with C (kcat/K(m) of 0.24-0.26 min(-1) x nM(-1)), while Nei prefers G over C as the complementary base (k(cat)/K(m) - 0.15-0.17 min(-1) x nM(-1)). However, only Nei efficiently excises these paired with A. MutY, a 8-oxoG.A(G)-specific A(G)-DNA glycosylase, is inactive with Gh(Sp).A/G-containing duplex oligonucleotide, in spite of specific affinity. It inhibits excision of lesions by MutM from the Gh.G or Sp.G pair, but not from Gh.C and Sp.C pairs. In contrast, MutY does not significantly inhibit Nei for any Gh(Sp) base pair. These results suggest a protective function for MutY in preventing mutation as a result of A (G) incorporation opposite Gh(Sp) during DNA replication.

Abstract
On thermolysis of the methoxy (MeO-TMD), tert-butoxy (tBuO-TMD), and hydroxy (HO-TMD) derivatives of 3,3,4,4-tetramethyl-1,2-dioxetane (TMD) in the presence of dG and calf-thymus DNA, the guanine is oxidized considerably more efficiently than the parent TMD. The same trend in the oxidative reactivity is observed for the photolysis of the corresponding oxy-substituted ketones versus acetone. The oxidative reactivity order in the dioxetane thermolysis, as well as in the ketone photolysis, parallels the ability of the excited ketones to release radicals (determined by spin trapping with DMPO and EPR spectroscopy) upon alpha cleavage (Norrish-type-I reaction). In the presence of molecular oxygen, the carbon-centered radicals are scavenged to produce peroxyl radicals, which are proposed as the reactive species in the oxidation of the guanine in dG and calf-thymus DNA.

Abstract
Oxidative reactions within DNA commonly result in base modifications. Among the four DNA bases, guanine is the most susceptible to various oxidants, and its related oxidized form, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, has been extensively studied in terms of repair and mutagenicity. However, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine is readily subjected to further oxidation, and this has become a point of interest. We recently found that singlet oxygen oxidation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine led to the predominant formation of oxaluric acid as the final product. We report herein on the biological features of oxaluric acid dealing with in vitro DNA synthesis and its removal from DNA by repair enzymes. Nucleotide insertion opposite oxaluric acid, catalyzed by Kf exo(-) and Taq indicates, that oxaluric acid induces G to T and G to C transversions. On the other hand, oxaluric acid represents a block when synthesis is performed with pol beta. Interestingly, DNA repair experiments carried out with formamidopyrimidine DNA N-glycosylase (Fpg) and endonuclease III (endo III) show that oxaluric acid is a substrate for both enzymes. Values of k(cat)/K(m) for the Fpg-mediated removal of oxidative guanine lesions revealed that 8-oxoGua is only a slightly better substrate than oxaluric acid. Interestingly, the results obtained with endo III suggest that oxaluric acid is a much better substrate than is 5-hydroxycytosine (5-OHC), an oxidized pyrimidine base.

Abstract
The horseradish-peroxidase(HRP)-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of aldehydes, in particular isobutanal, was used for the oxidative damage of DNA. In isolated calf-thymus DNA, the enzymatic oxidation of isobutanal led to 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoGua) in up to 1.3% yield and appreciable single-strand breaks in supercoiled pBR 322 DNA. For the nucleoside dG, significant amounts of the guanidine-releasing products oxazolone and oxoimidazolidine have been detected, but 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) was not obtained. Only enolizable aldehydes are effective, molecular oxygen is essential, and radical scavengers inhibit efficiently the oxidation. Comparative experiments with 3,3,4,4-tetramethyl-1,2-dioxetane (TMD) revealed that triplet-excited acetone does not play a significant role in this enzymatic DNA oxidation. 2-Hydroperoxy-2-methylpropanal, an intermediate in the HRP-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of isobutanal, does not contribute directly in the observed dG conversion. However, the peroxyl radical derived from the 2-hydroperoxy-2-methylpropanal appears to be active as oxidant because model studies with a structurally related peroxyl radical, produced by HRP-catalyzed one-electron oxidation of 3-hydroperoxy-3-methyl-2-butanone, causes both dG conversion and DNA strand breaks, but to a moderate extent. The active oxidant, as established by control experiments, is the peroxyisobutyric acid, that is efficiently formed through the HRP-catalyzed autoxidation of isobutanal. Still more effective is the acylperoxyl radical, conveniently generated from the peracid by one-electron oxidation by HRP.

Abstract
Oxidative damage to DNA bases commonly resultsin the formation of oxidized purines, particularly 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoadenine (8-oxoA), the former being a well-known mutagenic lesion. Since 8-oxoG is readily subject to further oxidation compared with normal bases, the insertion of a base during DNA synthesis opposite an oxidized form of 8-oxoG was investigated in vitro. A synthetic template containing a single 8-oxoG lesion was first treated with different one-electron oxidants or under singlet oxygen conditions and then subjected to primer extension catalyzed by Klenow fragment exo- (Kf exo-), calf thymus DNA polymerase alpha (pol alpha) or human DNA polymerase beta (pol beta). Consistent with previous reports, dAMP and dCMP are inserted selectively opposite 8-oxoG with all three DNA polymerases. Interestingly, oxidation of 8-oxoG was found to induce dAMP and dGMP insertion opposite the lesion by Kf exo- with transient inhibition of primer extension occurring at the site of the modified base. Furthermore, the lesion constitutes a block during DNA synthesis by pol alpha and pol beta. Experiments with an 8-oxoA-modified template oligonucleotide show that both 8-oxoA and an oxidized form of 8-oxoA direct insertion of dTMP by Kf exo-. Mass spectrometric analysis of 8-oxoG-containing oligonucleotides before and after oxidation with IrCl62-are consistent with oxidation of primarily the 8-oxoG site, resulting in formation of a guanidinohydantoin moiety as the major product. No evidence for formation of abasic sites was obtained. These results demonstrate that an oxidized form of 8-oxoG, possibly guanidinohydantoin, may direct misreading and misinsertion of dNTPs during DNA synthesis. If such a process occurred in vivo, it would represent a point mutagenic lesion leading to G-->T and G-->C transversions. However, the corresponding oxidized form of 8-oxoA primarily shows correct insertion of T during DNA synthesis with Kf exo-.

Abstract
We found that single-stranded DNA oligomers containing a 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxo-G) residue have high reactivity toward KMnO4; the oxidation of 8-oxo-G induces damage to the neighboring nucleotide residues. This paper describes the novel reaction in detail, including experiments that demonstrate the mechanism involved in the induction of DNA damage. The results using DNAs of various base compositions indicated that damaged G, T and C (but not A) sites caused strand scissions after hot piperidine treatment and that the damage around the 8-oxo-G occurred at G sites in both single and double strands with high frequency. The latter substrates were less sensitive to damage. Further, kinetic studies of the KMnO4reaction of single-stranded oligomers suggested that thereactivity of the DNA bases at the site 5'-adjacent to the 8-oxo-G was in the order G >A >T, C. This preference correlates with the electron donating abilities of the bases. In addition, we found that the DNA damage at the G site, which was connected with the 8-oxo-G by a long abasic chain, was inhibited in the above order by the addition of dG, dA or dC. On the other hand, the damage reactions proceeded even after the addition of scavengers for active oxygen species. This study suggests the involvement of a redox process in the unique DNA damage initiated by the oxidation of the 8-oxo-G.

Abstract
The discovery that peptide nucleic acids (PNA) mimic DNA and RNA by forming complementary duplex structures following Watson-Crick base pairing rules opens fields in biochemistry, diagnostics, and medicine for exploration. Progress requires the development of modified PNA duplexes having unique and well defined properties. We find that anthraquinone groups bound to internal positions of a PNA oligomer intercalate in the PNA-DNA hybrid. Their irradiation with near-UV light leads to electron transfer and oxidative damage at remote GG doublets on the complementary DNA strand. This behavior mimics that observed in related DNA duplexes and provides the first evidence for long range electron (hole) transport in PNA-DNA hybrid. Analysis of the mechanism for electron transport supports hole hopping.
