Photoirradiation of 5-iodouracil-containing DNA, d(GTAAT(I)UAC)(2) with Sso7d protein, possessing significant kink in DNA in the crystal structure induces an unprecedented intrastrand H abstraction at the methyl group of T(5), together with selective photooxidations at Met29 of Sso7d. The reactivity of

Dihydroprymidine dehydrogenase catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in pyrimidine degradation by converting pyrimidines to the corresponding 5,6- dihydro compounds. The three-dimensional structures of a binary complex with the inhibitor 5-iodouracil and two ternary complexes with NADPH and the inhibitors
