Electron-Induced Elimination of the Bromide Anion from Brominated Nucleobases. A Computational Study

Chomicz, Lidia, Rak, Janusz, Storoniak, Piotr·2012·The Journal of Physical Chemistry B

Abstract

The enhancement of radiodamage to DNA labeled with halonucleobases is attributed to the reactive radical produced from a halonucleobase by the attachment of an electron. We examined at the B3LYP/6-31++G** level electron capture by four brominated nucleobases (BrNBs): 8-bromo-9-methyladenine, 8-bromo-9-methylguanine, 5-bromo-1-methylcytosine, and 5-bromo-1-methyluracil followed by the release of the bromide anion and a nucleobase radical. We demonstrate that neutral BrNBs in both gas and aqueous phases are better electron acceptors than unsubstituted NBs and that resulting anion radicals, BrNBs(•-), can easily transform into the product complex of the bromide anion and the nucleobase radical ([Br(-)···NB(•)]). The overall thermodynamic stimulus for the process starting with the neutral BrNB and ending with the isolated bromide anion and the NB(•) radical is similar in the case of all four BrNBs studied, which suggests their comparable radiosensitizing capabilities.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
