In this case, a thermodynamic model is not viable, but the low carbon oxidation state of DNA near the ocean surface reflects a low GC content, which can be attributed to genome reduction in organisms ...

in conjunction with the requirement of these residues for DNA binding, provides a tight coupling between oxidant detection and a transcriptional response. The oxidation of histidine residues also ...

Reduction is the gain of electrons by a substance. It is also the loss of oxygen from a substance. For example, copper(II) oxide can be reduced to form copper when it reacts with hydrogen: ...

such as oxidation, reduction, and methylation. One of the most important properties of guanine is its ability to form three hydrogen bonds with cytosine. This strong base pairing is crucial for the ...
