Abstract: Abstract It has been shown experimentally that the hydrolytic deamination of cytosine in single-stranded DNA occurs significantly more frequently than that of adenine, despite similarities in their structure. To provide insight into this difference, we… read more here.

Abstract: Herein, we report the major factor for deamination reaction rate acceleration, i.e., hydrophilicity, by using various 5-substituted target cytosines and by carrying out deamination at high temperatures. Through substitution of the groups at the 5′-position… read more here.
