The decomposition of organic hydroperoxides into peroxyl radicals is a potential source of singlet molecular oxygen [O2 (1Deltag)] in biological systems. This study shows that 5-(hydroperoxymethyl)uracil (5-HPMU), a thymine hydroperoxide within DNA, reacts with metal ions or HOCl, generating O2

5-Formyluracil (fU) is a major thymine lesion produced by reactive oxygen radicals and photosensitized oxidation. Although this residue is a potentially mutagenic lesion and is removed by several base excision repair enzymes, it is unknown whether fU is the substrate

2-Aminoimidazolone and 5-formyluracil are major one-electron photooxidation products of guanine and thymine in oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs). Herein we report the HPLC isolation and tandem mass spectrometric characterization of ODNs carrying those types of base modifications. Collision-activated dissociation (CAD) of the deprotonated

Ionizing radiation induces a wide variety of modifications to purine and pyrimidine residues. The exocyclic methyl group of thymine does not escape oxidative damage. Any 5-hydroperoxymethyluracil produced is spontaneously decomposed to form 5-formyluracil (5-foU) and 5-hydroxymethyluracil. The yield of 5-foU

The oxidation of the thymine methyl group can generate 5-formyluracil (FoU). Template FoU residues are known to miscode, generating base substitution mutations. The repair of the FoU lesion is therefore important in minimizing mutations induced by DNA oxidation. We have
