Abstract：
:5-(Hydroxymethyl)uracil, 5-formyluracil or 5-carboxyuracil can be formed in DNA upon exposure to ionizing radiations. We report the effect of the latter oxidative lesions on the in vitro transcription by T7 RNA polymerase using a single-stranded short model template. Kinetic experiments showed that the transcription yield was increased with the modified template. Due to the unforeseen presence of a hairpin structure within the transcribed RNA, we postulated that we are in the presence of a T7 RNA polymerase pausing signal and that the lesions within this critical DNA structure could interfere with normal regulation of RNA transcription.
