  3. DNA and Electrons • A variety of studies show that aqueous electrons add to the DNA bases and do not cause strand breaks. • The base anion radicals undergo protonation reactions. • Only nonsolvated electrons with kinetic energy (LEE) cause DNA strand breaks. • At low temperatures electron in DNA are stable for long times.

  30. Proposed mechanism of single strand break (SSB) due to attachment of LEE with 5'-dTMPH molecule

  31. Why C-O not P-O? • Experimentally only cleavage at the C-O bond is found. Y Zheng, P Cloutier, D Hunting, J R Wagner, L Sanche, JCP, 124, 064710 (2006). • The loss of phosphate anion is the driving force for the reaction because the phosphate radical has a such a large EA.

  34. LEE Induced Excited States • LEE induced resonances found experimentally suggest excited state involvement. • What are the available excited state levels? • We performed TD-DFT calculations to aid our understanding in 5’-dTMP-●

  37. Summary • Strand break formation by LEE induced C-O bond scission is the lowest energy pathway in comparison to C-N, N-H or C-H bond scissions. • LEE induced anion excited states likely provide a facile route to strand breaks.
