Kinetics of deamination and Cu(II)/H(2)O(2)/Ascorbate-induced formation of 5-methylcytosine glycol at CpG sites in duplex DNA

Mutation in p53 tumor suppressor gene is a hallmark of human cancers. Six major mutational hotspots in p53 contain methylated CpG (mCpG) sites, and C →T transition is the most common mutation at these sites. It was hypothesized that the formation of 5-methylcytosine glycol induced by reactive oxygen...
