Hydration of Nucleobase as Probed by Electron Emission of Uridine-5’-Mono-Phosphate (UMP) in Aqueous Solution Induced by Nitrogen K-Shell Ionization

To identify the precise early radiation processes of DNA lesions, we measure electron kinetic energy spectra emitted from uridine-5’ monophosphate (UMP) in aqueous solution for the photoionization of the N 1s orbital electron and for the following Auger effect using a monochromatic soft X-ray synchrotron radiation at energies above the nitrogen K-shell ionization threshold. The change of photoelectron spectra for UMP in aqueous solutions at different proton concentrations (pH = 7.5 and 11.3) is ascribed to the chemical shift of the N3 nitrogen atom in uracil moiety of canonical and deprotonated forms. The lowest double ionization potentials for aqueous UMP at different pH obtained from the Auger electron spectra following the N 1s photoionization values show the electrostatic aqueous interaction of uracil moiety of canonical (neutral) and deprotonated (negatively charged) forms with hydrated water molecules.
