The principal oxidized cytosine bases, uracil glycol, 5-hydroxycytosine, and 5-hydroxyuracil, are readily bypassed, miscode, and are thus important premutagenic lesions. Similarly the …
D Wang, DA Kreutzer, JM Essigmann - Mutation Research/Fundamental …, 1998 - Elsevier
Oxidative DNA damage has been implicated in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and aging. Endogenous cellular processes such as aerobic metabolism generate reactive oxygen …

Base excision repair (BER), as initiated by at least seven different DNA glycosylases or by enzymes that cleave DNA at abasic sites, executes the repair of a wide variety of DNA …
TK Hazra, A Das, S Das, S Choudhury, YW Kow, R Roy - DNA repair, 2007 - Elsevier
Oxidatively induced DNA lesions have been implicated in the etiology of many diseases (including cancer) and in aging. Repair of oxidatively damaged bases in all organisms …

The major mutagenic base lesion in DNA caused by exposure to reactive oxygen species is 8-hydroxyguanine (8-oxo-7, 8-dihydroguanine). In bacteria and Saccharomyces cerevisiae …
This review focuses on the chemistry performed by base excision repair (BER) enzymes, enzymes that remove nucleobases from DNA in the first step of the repair of many types of …
