ESR/ENDOR study of the guanine cation: Secondary product in 5' -dGMP

  • 1. E.T.S.U., Johnson City, TN

Description

Previous ESR studies by Voit and Huttermann of x-irradiated single crystals of 2' deoxyguanosine-5'-monophosphate have indicated the presence of a radical thought to be formed by deprotonation of the primary base cation at N1. In this study the authors report results of a detailed ESR and ENDOR experiment at 10 K which conflict with the results cited above. One of the radicals detected inhibited two α-proton type couplings. The data analysis shows that one coupling is due to the proton on the extra annular NH/sub 2/ group, while the other is due to the proton bonded to C8
