Differences Between 4′‐RNA and 4′‐DNA Radicals during Anaerobic and Aerobic Strand Cleavage
1999
How long does it take until it breaks? And what are the products? The influence of the 2′-OH group on the stability of nucleotide strands and the product composition after a radical-induced strand cleavage were investigated. The selectively generated 4′-ribonucleotide radicals 1 show that the 2′-OH group decreases the rate of spontaneous cleavage kE (1→2+3) as well as changes the ratio of the products 2 and 4 formed under aerobic conditions.
