ELECTROCHEMICAL DETECTION OF BENZO[A]PYRENE METABOLITE DNA DAMAGE : IMPLICATIONS OF NUCLEOBASE SEQUENCE AND ADDUCT STEREOCHEMISTRY
(East Carolina University, 2011)Xenobiotics are chemical compounds introduced to living organisms that originate outside the body. A well-studied xenobiotic is benzo[a]pyrene (BP), a polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) primarily introduced into the body via ... -
Identification of Damaged DNA Adducts from Exposure to Benzo[a]pyrene in the TP53 Gene
(2015)Benzo[a]pyrene is a carcinogen associated with tobacco smoke that can damage DNA after it is metabolized into highly reactive forms. Identifying the resulting DNA adducts can give greater insight into the mutations that ...
