Chemical Reaction of Soybean Flavonoids with DNA: A Computational Study Using the Implicit Solvent Model
Genistein, daidzein, glycitein and quercetin are flavonoids present in soybean and other vegetables in high amounts. These flavonoids can be metabolically converted to more active forms, which may react with guanine in the DNA to form complexes and can lead to DNA depurination. We assumed two ultima...
