== Transversions due to products of oxidative guanine damage == Of the natural nitrogenous bases of DNA, guanine is most prone to oxidation. Oxidation of guanine, also known as oxidative guanine damage, results in the formation of many products. These products trigger mutations, leading to DNA damage, and can pair with adenine and guanine through hydrogen bonding causing G-T transversions and G-C transversions, respectively.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Kino|first1=Katsuhito|last2=Kawada|first2=Taishu|last3=Hirao-Suzuki|first3=Masayo|last4=Morikawa|first4=Masayuki|last5=Miyazawa|first5=Hiroshi|date=2020-10-15|title=Products of Oxidative Guanine Damage Form Base Pairs with Guanine|journal=International Journal of Molecular Sciences|volume=21|issue=20|pages=7645|doi=10.3390/ijms21207645|pmid=33076559|pmc=7589758|issn=1422-0067|doi-access=free}}</ref>
