Identification of a specific telomere terminal transferase activity in tetrahymena extracts
TL;DR: It is proposed that the novel telomere terminal transferase is involved in the addition of telomeric repeats necessary for the replication of chromosome ends in eukaryotes.

DNA damage produced by ionizing radiation in mammalian cells: identities, mechanisms of formation, and reparability.
TL;DR: It has been concluded that the types and yields of damaged moieties produced in intracellular DNA by low LET ionizing radiation are consistent with the mechanisms of production that involve both OH radical attack and a direct ionization of the macromolecule.

Solution structure of the human telomeric repeat d[AG3(T2AG3)3] G-tetraplex
TL;DR: The availability of the d[AG3(T2AG3)3] solution structure containing four AG3 human telomeric repeats should permit the rational design of ligands that recognize and bind with specificity and affinity to the individual grooves of the G-tetraplex, as well as to either end containing the diagonal and lateral loops.

The non‐Watson–Crick base pairs and their associated isostericity matrices
TL;DR: This paper presents the 4 x 4 'isostericity matrices' summarizing the geometric relationships between the 16 pairwise combinations of the four standard bases, A, C, G and U, and helps identify isosteric pairs that co-vary or interchange in sequences of homologous molecules while maintaining conserved three-dimensional motifs.
