Guanine and 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-guanine-specific oxidation in DNA by chromium(V).
The hexavalent oxidation state of chromium [Cr(VI)] is a well-established human carcinogen, although the mechanism of cancer induction is currently unknown. Intracellular reduction of Cr(VI) forms Cr(V), which is thought to play a fundamental role in the mechanism of DNA damage by this carcinogen. Two separate pathways of DNA damage, an oxidative pathway and a metal-binding pathway, have been p...
متن کاملParadoxical hotspots for guanine oxidation by a chemical mediator of inflammation.
Guanine in DNA is a major oxidation target owing to its low ionization potential (IP), and there is often an inverse correlation between damage frequency and sequence-dependent variation in guanine IP. We report that the biological oxidant nitrosoperoxycarbonate (ONOOCO2(-)) paradoxically selects guanines with the highest IP in GC-containing contexts. Along with sequence-dependent variation in ...
متن کاملGuanine alkylation by ethylene oxide: calculation of chemical reactivity.
In this paper we report on calculations of the activation free energy for a chemical reaction between ethylene oxide and guanine. Ethylene oxide is biologically relevant per se and is also a model compound for numerous ultimate carcinogens. Calculations were performed on the medium-high ab initio, DFT, and semiempirical MO levels. Effects of solvation were considered using the Langevine dipole ...
متن کاملRates of Chemical Cleavage of DNA and RNA Oligomers Containing Guanine Oxidation Products
The nucleobase guanine in DNA (dG) and RNA (rG) has the lowest standard reduction potential of the bases, rendering it a major site of oxidative damage in these polymers. Mapping the sites at which oxidation occurs in an oligomer via chemical reagents utilizes hot piperidine for cleaving oxidized DNA and aniline (pH 4.5) for cleaving oxidized RNA. In the present studies, a series of time-depend...
متن کاملChemical structure and properties of interstrand cross-links formed by reaction of guanine residues with abasic sites in duplex DNA.
A new type of interstrand cross-link resulting from the reaction of a DNA abasic site with a guanine residue on the opposing strand of the double helix was recently identified, but the chemical connectivity of the cross-link was not rigorously established. The work described here was designed to characterize the chemical structure and properties of dG-AP cross-links generated in duplex DNA. The...
