| 英文摘要 | A viable pathway is proposed for the formation of the triplet state of the GC WatsonCrick base pair. It includes the following steps: (a) a low-energy electron is captured by cytosine in the GC pair, forming the cytosine base-centered radical anion GC(-center dot); and (b) photoradiation with energy around 5 eV initiates the electron detachment from either cytosine (in the gas phase) or guanine (in aqueous solutions). This triggers interbase proton transfer from G to C, creating the triplet state of the GC pair. Double proton transfer involving the triplet state of GC pair leads to the formation of less stable tautomer G(N2H)C-center dot(O2H)(center dot). Tautomerization is accomplished through a double proton transfer process in which one proton at the N3 of C(H)(center dot) migrates to the N1 of G(-H)(center dot); meanwhile, the proton at the N2 of G transfers to the O2 of C. This process is energetically viable; the corresponding activation energy is around 1213 kcal/mol. The base-pairing energy of the triplet is found to be similar to 35 kcal/mol smaller than that of the singlet state. Thus, the formation of the triplet state GC pair in DNA double strand only slightly weakens its stability. The obtained highly reactive radicals are expected to cause serious damage in the DNA involved in biochemical processes, such as DNA replication where radicals are exposed in the single strands. |
