The Electronic Property Differences between dA::dG and dA::dG<sup>oxo</sup>. A Theoretical Approach

The dA::dG<sup>oxo</sup> pair appearing in nucleic ds-DNA can lead to a mutation in the genetic information. Depending on the dG<sup>oxo</sup> source, an AT→GC and GC→AC transversion might be observed. As a result, glycosylases are developed during the evolution, i.e., OGG1 a...
