Target Information
Function
DNA or RNA damage can hinder the ability of a cell to carry out its function
and can significantly increase the likelihood of tumor formation. One of the
causes of damaged DNA and RNA is oxidation of the bases. 8-hydroxy-2'-de
oxyguanosine, 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OHdG) and 8-hydroxyguanosine are all
markers of oxidative damage to RNA and DNA. 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine
is produced by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, including hydroxyl rad
ical and peroxynitrite. 8-hydroxyguanine is one of the major base lesions in
volved in mutagenesis and is caused by ionizing radiation and radiomimetic
agents. 8-hydroxyguanosine induces a transversion of G to T in DNA, which
may be mutagenic. Markers of DNA and RNA damage are useful research
tools when studying the effects of this type of damage.
