The nucleotide sequence preferences for the formation of interstrand cross-links induced in DNA by 2,5-diaziridinyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DZQ) and 3,6-dimethyl-2,5-diaziridinyl-1,4-benzoquinone (MeDZQ) were studied using synthetic duplex oligonucleotides and denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Reaction of these bifunctional alkylating agents with a DNA
