26. Further evidence for alkylation of guanine by 2 was obtained by sequencing analysis. Thus, smear cleavage bands obtained by heating DNA treated with 2 did not co-migrate with Maxam-Gilbert G bands, whereas the clear G bands in Figure 4 were obtained by heating the same samples with piperidine. The observed band shift is a typical indication for alkylation of guanine at N7.
