摘要
A crosslinked dinucleoside, 1,2-(diguanosin-7-yl) ethane, has been isolated from the reaction of guanosine with the antitumor agent, BCNU. The formation of this product suggests that DNA crosslinking, which may be responsible for the cytotoxicity of BCNU, could occur through such dinucleosides. © 1979.
