DNA Cleavage Induced by Thermal Electron Transfer from a Dimeric NADH Analogue to Acridinium Ions in the Presence of Oxygen

Abstract
Acridinium ions, which can intercalate to DNA, act as thermal DNA cleavers in the presence of a dimeric NADH analogue and O2 in an aqueous solution via thermal electron transfer from a dimeric NADH analogue to acridinium ions, followed by the electron-transfer reduction of O2 to O2•- by the resulting NAD radicals.
