    AnnotationThe results indicated that in double-stranded DNA N-7 of guanine and N-3 of adenine account for 97% of alkylation by SO. However, these abundant adducts are not stable, the half-life of depurination in DNA for 3-substituted adenines being ~ 10 and ~ 20 h, for ?- and ß-isomers, respectively, and 51 h for both isomers of 7-substituted guanines.
