Oxidative damage of DNA induced by the reaction of methylglyoxal with lysine in the presence of ferritin
Methylglyoxal (MG) is an endogenous metabolite which ispresent in increased concentrations in diabetics and reacts withamino acids to form advanced glycation end products. In thisstudy, we investigated whether ferritin enhances DNA cleavageby the reaction of MG with lysine. When plasmid DNA wasincub...
