The photophysical and photochemical behavior of a series of hairpin-forming DNA conjugates possessing a 5'-tethered pyrenecarboxamide chromophore and one or two bromouracil bases has been investigated. Quenching of the pyrene fluorescence and transient absorption spectra characteristic of the pyrene cation

The reaction of low-energy electrons (LEEs; 10 eV) with 5'-TpXpT-3' (TXT), where X is uracil (U), thymine (T), and 5-bromouracil (5BrU), was examined by HPLC-UV analysis. The presence of 5BrU increased total damage by >50%. The radiation products of T5BrUT

Photofragmentation of thymine and 5-bromouracil into cation and neutral fragments following the core ionization by soft x-rays using photoelectron-photoion-photoion coincidence technique has been studied. The fragment ion mass spectra were recorded in coincidence with the C 1s photoelectron spectra. In

Density functional theory calculations on the canonical (keto) and rare (enol) tautomeric forms of uracil and 5-bromouracil in a cluster consisting of 50 water molecules are presented. The keto form of uracil is favored over the enol tautomer in both
Electron transfer in DNA has been intensively studied to elucidate its biological roles and for applications in bottom-up DNA nanotechnology. Recently, mechanisms of electron transfer to DNA have been investigated; however, most of the systems designed are intramolecular. Here, we
