Structural Investigations of N3-(2-Hydroxy-3-buten-1-yl)-2'-deoxyuridine DNA Adducts

Butadiene monoepoxide (BDO) is the major metabolite of butadiene (BD), a widely used petrochemical and known human and animal carcinogen. BD metabolites may be involved in BD-induced carcinogenicity primarily through the production of DNA adducts. Under physiological conditions, BDO alkylates the N3...
