In early stage of radiation-induced DNA damage,
high-energy radiation ionizes nucleic acid bases,
generating positive holes and electrons within DNA
strand. Identification of the DNA sites that trap
holes and electrons is essential to understanding
the process of DNA damage caused directly by ionizing radiation. The positive holes are trapped at
guanine (G) sites with lower oxidation potential on
the DNA helix. Similarly the electron trap sites
favoring e$cient transport of excess electrons in
DNA may be present.
Key words: DNA, radiation damage, hole, electron
transfer, proton transfer
