Sequence-dependent formation of intrastrand crosslink products from the UVB irradiation of duplex DNA containing a 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine or 5-bromo-2′-deoxycytidine

The replacement of thymidine with 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU) is well-known to sensitize cells to ionizing radiation and photoirradiation. We reported here the sequence-dependent formation of intrastrand crosslink products from the UVB irradiation of duplex oligodeoxynucleotides harboring a BrdU...
