Single-turnover (kst) and non-enzymatic (knon) rate constants for 7mG depurination from 25-mer oligonucleotides at 37°C, pH 7.5, and 150 mM ionic strength. M1-M4 each contained one MeP at the positions shown in Figure 2B. Data for M0 (no MeP) were taken from ref.37 DNA sequences and kinetic data can be found in the Supplement.
