Evidence is presented for the formation of products in irradiated dinucleoside monophosphates in which both bases are damaged. The dinucleoside monophosphates d(GpT), d(GpC), d(TpG) and d(CpG) were X-irradiated in oxygenated aqueous solution. Product identification was by NMR spectroscopy. In products containing double base lesions, guanine is converted to 8-hydroxyguanine and the pyrimidine base is degraded to a formamido remnant.
