Isoguanine
Isoguanine or 2-hydroxyadenine is a purine base that is an isomer of guanine. It is a product of oxidative damage to DNA and has been shown to cause mutation.[1] It is also used in combination with isocytosine in studies of unnatural nucleic acid analogues of the normal base pairs in DNA.[2][3]

It is used as a nucleobase of hachimoji nucleic acids.[4] In hachimoji DNA, it pairs with 1-methylcytosine, while in hachimoji RNA, it pairs with isocytosine.
