Popis: Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or oligonucleotides, can be modified in several ways as chemical degradation by electrophilic reaction, attack of radicals, hydrolytic deamination or oxidative damage caused by ionizing radiation. This work discussed these degradation mechanisms, determining the effects on these biomolecules. The actual knowledge about DNA damages only permits partial enzymatic repair treatments.
