## Abstract When 2‐aminopurine (2AP) is substituted for adenine in DNA, it is widely accepted that its fluorescence spectrum is essentially unchanged from that of the free fluorophore. We show that 2AP in DNA exhibits long‐wavelength emission and excitation bands, in addition to the familiar short‐
