Degradation of DNA by cysteine

Abstract

Abstract Exposure of DNA solutions to cysteine resulted in degradation of the polydeoxynucleotide. This reaction was inhibited by Na2 EDTA and by sodium citrate. Methylcysteine, mercaptoethanol, serine, and homocysteine did not exhibit this degradative effect. Preincubation of cysteine resulted in a more rapid rate of degradation thus suggesting that a product formed during incubation was responsible for the observed effects.
