Heteroduplex-induced mutagenesis in mammalian cells.
We have shown previously that heteroduplexes containing single-stranded loops are repaired efficiently in monkey cells, but not always correctly: 2% of the repair products acquired mutations within a 350 base-pair target (Weiss, U. and Wilson, J.H., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:1123-1126, 1987). The structures of the mutant genomes, which are described here, are consistent with an error-prone ...
متن کاملTranscriptional Mutagenesis Induced by 8-Oxoguanine in Mammalian Cells
Most of the somatic cells of adult metazoans, including mammals, do not undergo continuous cycles of replication. Instead, they are quiescent and devote most of their metabolic activity to gene expression. The mutagenic consequences of exposure to DNA-damaging agents are well documented, but less is known about the impact of DNA lesions on transcription. To investigate this impact, we developed...
متن کاملOverexpression of Ogg1 in mammalian cells: effects on induced and spontaneous oxidative DNA damage and mutagenesis.
Chinese hamster ovary cell lines (AA8 and AS52) were stably transfected to overexpress hOgg1 protein, the human DNA repair glycosylase for 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). In the transfectants, the repair rate of 8-oxoG residues induced by either potassium bromate or the photosensitizer [R]-1-[(10-chloro-4-oxo-3-phenyl-4H-benzo[a]quinolizin-1-yl)-carbo nyl ]-2-pyrrolidinemethanolplus light wa...
متن کاملInteraction between radiation-induced adaptive response and bystander mutagenesis in mammalian cells.
Two conflicting phenomena, the bystander effect and the adaptive response, are important in determining biological responses at low doses of radiation and have the potential to have an impact on the shape of the dose-response relationship. Using the Columbia University charged-particle microbeam and the highly sensitive AL cell mutagenic assay, we reported previously that nonirradiated cells ac...
متن کاملExcision repair is required for genotoxin-induced mutagenesis in mammalian cells.
Certain hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] compounds are human lung carcinogens. Although much is known about Cr-induced DNA damage, very little is known about mechanisms of Cr(VI) mutagenesis and the role that DNA repair plays in this process. Our goal was to investigate the role of excision repair (ER) pathways in Cr(VI)-mediated mutagenesis in mammalian cells. Repair-proficient Chinese hamster ova...
