Spin‐projected QM/MM Free Energy Simulations for Oxidation Reaction of Guanine in B−DNA by Singlet Oxygen

Guanine is the most susceptible base to oxidation damage induced by reactive oxygen species including singlet oxygen ((1)O(2), (1)Δ(g)). We clarify whether the first step of guanine oxidation in B−DNA proceeds via either a zwitterionic or a diradical intermediate. The free energy profiles are calcul...
