R David Britt et al.
Radical S-adenosylmethionine (radical SAM or rSAM) enzymes use their S-adenosylmethionine cofactor bound to a unique Fe of a [4Fe-4S] cluster to generate the "hot" 5'-deoxyadenosyl radical, which drives highly selective radical reactions vi...
Binding of AP endonuclease-1 to G-quadruplex DNA depends on the N-terminal domain, Mg2+ and ionic strength [0.03%]
