Lysyltyrosyllysine (Lys-Tyr-Lys, KYK) is used together with uracil DNA glycosylase to quantify uracil. Lysyltyrosyllysine is also used as a model peptide to study free radical oxidation and electron capture mechanisms.

Tripeptide can induce nicks at apurinic/apyrimidinic sites in circular DNA.

OH.-induced covalent peptide-nucleotide adducts have been isolated by reverse-phase chromatography from the enzymic hydrolyzates of gamma-ray irradiated solutions containing double-stranded poly(deoxyadenylic-deoxythymidylic acid) and one of the tripeptides, lysyl-tryptophyl-lysine or lysyl-tyrosyl-lysine. Numerous compounds were formed, resulting presumably from different modes of

Tripeptides containing aromatic residues between basic ones, such as Lys-Trp-Lys and Lys-Tyr-Lys can nick supercoiled or relaxed DNAs containing apurinic/apyrimidinic sites (AP-sites). The nicking, which is ionic strength-dependent, occurs at AP-sites, since native PM2 DNA is not hydrolyzed. The nicking
The effect of neighboring amino acid residues and solution environment on the oxidative stability of tyrosine in small peptides.

The effects of water on electron capture dissociation products, molecular survival, and recombination energy are investigated for diprotonated Lys-Tyr-Lys solvated by between zero and 25 water molecules. For peptide ions with between 12 and 25 water molecules attached, electron capture

The complete sequential assignment and conformation of d-GpCpGpC in D2O has been determined from 1D NMR spectra at 285-320 K and room temperature 2D-COSY and NOESY spectra. The tetradeoxynucleotide exists primarily as a right handed double helix at 285 K
