Insights into the Structures of DNA Damaged by Hydroxyl Radical: Crystal Structures of DNA Duplexes Containing 5-Formyluracil

Figure 1

The final 2 | 𝐹 𝑜 | - | 𝐹 𝑐 | maps around the fU residues in the fUA2 (a), the fUG2 (b), and the fUG3 (c) crystals. The maps are contoured at 1 𝜎 level by the program DINO [18]. Those of the fUG1 crystal are omitted due to similarity to (c). Values indicate possible hydrogen bond distances. Characters N, O, and W indicate nitrogen, oxygen, and water oxygen atoms, respectively.
