## Abstract The unwinding free energy of 128 DNA octamers was correlated with the sum of interaction energies among DNA bases and their solvation energies. The former energies were determined by using the recently developed density functional theory procedure augmented by London dispersion energy (
## Background: Non-enzymatic methylation of DNA by endogenous and exogenous agents produces a variety of adducts, of which the predominant one is N7-methyl-2'deoxyguanosine (m'dG). Although it is known that living organisms counter the deleterious effects of m7dG by producing adduct-specific DNA r
