The developed theoretical model shows that oxidative DNA damage and conformational transitions in proteins are based on a universal mechanism for changing the amount of the most long-lived form, hydrogen peroxide, in a chemical oscillator of mutual transformations of reactive oxygen species under a low-intensity electromagnetic field. It has been experimentally found that the content of hydrogen peroxide in solutions of biopolymers resonantly depends on the frequency of the applied field. Conformational changes in proteins are accompanied by increasing accessibility and activity of the nucleophilic centers, which are potential targets for reactive oxygen species.
