Abstract:
It is suggested that viral nucleic acid inserts in vulnerable regions of host cell DNA contribute to cell transformation by introducing 43 degrees of optical rotation at 425 nm, and that a carcinogenic event caused by DNA inserts and adducts is spurious electron ejection from important adenine molecules that may be far from insert/adduct sites.
