title: Synthesis and characterization of the 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine glycol-dioxoosmium-bipyridine ternary complex in DNA.
abstract: It has been established that approximately 80% of a 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine glycol-dioxoosmium(vi)-bipyridine ternary complex, which is known to be produced as one of various consequences of oxidative damage of DNA and is formed in a key step of a recently developed DNA methylation detection method, has the 5R,6S configuration.
