We have determined the x-ray structure of a DNA fragment containing 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (Go). The structure of the duplex form of d(CCAGoCGCTGG) has been determined to 1.6-A resolution. The results demonstrate that Go forms Watson-Crick base pairs with the opposite C and that Go Abbreviations: Go, 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine. §Present address:
