Schmaltz L, Koag M, Kou Y, Zhang L, Lee S
Biochem J . 2023 Apr; 480(9):573-585. PMID: 37078496
Various alkylating agents are known to preferentially modify guanine in DNA, resulting in the formation of N7-alkylguanine (N7-alkylG) and the imidazole ring opened alkyl-formamidopyrimidine (alkyl-FapyG) lesions. Evaluating the mutagenic effects...

Rozelle A, Cheun Y, Vilas C, Koag M, Lee S
Nat Commun . 2021 Mar; 12(1):1897. PMID: 33772030
Oxidative damage to DNA generates 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (oxoG) and 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoadenine (oxoA) as two major lesions. Despite the comparable prevalence of these lesions, the biological effects of oxoA remain poorly characterized. Here...

Ouzon-Shubeita H, Jung H, Lee M, Koag M, Lee S
Biochem J . 2020 Apr; 477(9):1601-1612. PMID: 32297632
Thymine:guanine base pairs are major promutagenic mismatches occurring in DNA metabolism. If left unrepaired, these mispairs can cause C to T transition mutations. In humans, T:G mismatches are repaired in...

Koag M, Jung H, Lee S
Nucleic Acids Res . 2020 Apr; 48(9):5119-5134. PMID: 32282906
Reactive oxygen species generate the genotoxic 8-oxoguanine (oxoG) and 8-oxoadenine (oxoA) as major oxidative lesions. The mutagenicity of oxoG is attributed to the lesion's ability to evade the geometric discrimination...

Koag M, Jung H, Kou Y, Lee S
Molecules . 2019 Nov; 24(21). PMID: 31683505
A wide range of endogenous and exogenous alkylating agents attack DNA to generate various alkylation adducts. N7-methyl-2-deoxyguanosine (Fm7dG) is the most abundant alkylative DNA lesion. If not repaired, Fm7dG can...

Kou Y, Koag M, Lee S
Molecules . 2019 Oct; 24(19). PMID: 31569643
Chronic inflammation is closely associated with cancer development. One possible mechanism for inflammation-induced carcinogenesis is DNA damage caused by reactive halogen species, such as hypochlorous acid, which is released by...

Koag M, Jung H, Lee S
J Am Chem Soc . 2019 Mar; 141(11):4584-4596. PMID: 30817143
Reactive oxygen species attack DNA to produce 7,8-dihyro-8-oxoguanine (oxoG) and 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoadenine (oxoA) as major lesions. The structural basis for the mutagenicity of oxoG, which induces G to T mutations, is...

Ouzon-Shubeita H, Baker M, Koag M, Lee S
Biochem J . 2019 Feb; 476(4):747-758. PMID: 30709915
Oxaliplatin, together with cisplatin, is among the most important drugs used in cancer chemotherapy. Oxaliplatin, which contains a bulky diaminocyclohexane (DACH) moiety, kills cancer cells mainly by producing (DACH)Pt-GpG intrastrand...

Kou Y, Koag M, Lee S
Biochemistry . 2018 Jun; 57(34):5105-5116. PMID: 29957995
A wide variety of endogenous and exogenous alkylating agents attack DNA to preferentially generate N7-alkylguanine (N7-alkylG) adducts. Studies of the effect of N7-alkylG lesions on biological processes have been difficult...

Koag M, Lee S
Biochem J . 2018 Jan; 475(3):571-585. PMID: 29301983
DNA polymerases accommodate various base-pair conformations in the event of incorrect insertions. In particular, Watson-Crick-like dG:dTTP base pair has been observed at the insertion site of human DNA polymerase β...
