Chemical effect of ionizing radiation on cytosine.

C A PONNAMPERUMA, R M LEMMON, M CALVIN.   

Abstract

The formation of uracil and the breakdown of the pyrimidine ring were observed when an aqueous solution of cytosine was irradiated. These two effects were investigated with the aid of radioactive tracer techniques and ultraviolet absorption studies.
