Mechanisms for radiation damage in DNA. Progress report
Description
In this project we have proposed several mechanisms for radiation damage to DNA and its constituents, and have detailed a series of experiments utilizing electron spin resonance spectrometry to test the proposed mechanisms. In the past we have concentrated chiefly on investigating irradiated systems of DNA constituent. In this past year's effort we have concentrated on radiation effects on DNA itself. In addition studies of radiation effects on lipids and model compounds have been performed which will shed light on the only other proposed site for cell kill, the membrane. 8 refs., 4 figs
