When DNA is irradiated by ultra-violet light a paramagnetic damage center is formed in the thymine bases. The structure of this free radical has been determined by electron spin resonance and consists of a hydrogen addition at the carbon No. 6 position. The rate of formation of the radical is enhanced by water vapor, and it is quenched by paramagnetic ions bound to the DNA.
