Cellular exposure to tobacco-specific nitrosamines causes formation of promutagenic O6 -[4-oxo-4-(3-pyridyl)but-1-yl]guanine (O6 -POB-G) and O6 -methylguanine (O6 -Me-G) adducts in DNA. These adducts can be directly repaired by O6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT). Repair begins by flipping the damaged base out of the DNA helix. AGT binding and base-flipping have been previously studied using pyrrolocytosine as a fluorescent probe paired to the O6 -alkylguanine lesion, but low fluorescence yield limited the resolution
