      BACKGROUND: In cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerotic disorder are the most frequent and important with respect to morbidity and mortality. Inflammation mediated by immune cells is central in all parts of the atherosclerotic progress, and further understanding of the underlying mechanisms is needed. Growing evidence suggests that deamination of adenosine-toinosine in RNA is crucial for a correct ...

      The cellular methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and other endo/exogenous agents methylate DNA bases non-enzymatically into products interfering with replication and transcription. An important product is 3-methyladenine (m<sup>3</sup>A), which in <i>Escherichia coli</i> is removed by m<sup>3</sup>A-DNA glycosylase I (Tag) and II (AlkA). The <i>tag</i> gene is constitutively expressed, while ...
