Radiation chemistry of DNA, II. Strand breaks and sugar release by gamma-irradiation of DNA in aqueous solution. The effect of oxygen.

M Dizdaroglu, D Schulte-Frohlinde, C von Sonntag.   

Abstract

From gamma-irradiated oxygenated aqueous solutions of DNA, 2-deoxy-tetrodialdose (1) and 2-deoxy-pentos-4-ulose (2) have been isolated as free sugars. The formation of 1 indicates that in the presence of oxygen the DNA strand is not only broken by mere phosphate ester cleavage but also by C--C-bond rupture in the sugar moiety. Such a process has not been encountered in deoxygenated solutions so far. The mechanism for the formation of 1 is discussed.
