چکیده

DNA cleavage stimulated by different topolsomerase H inhibitors shows in vitro a characteristic sequence specificity. Since chromatin struc tare and genome organization are expected to Influence drug-enzyme interactions and repair of drug-Induced DNA lesions, we investigated topoisomerase II DNA cleavage sites stimulated by teniposide (VM-26), 4-demethoxy-3'-deamino-3'-hydroxy-4'-epi-doxorubicin (dh-EPI, a doxo rubicin derivative), 4'-(9-acridinylamino)-methanesulfon-m-anisidide,and amonafide in the histone gene locus and satellite III DNA of Drosophila cells with Southern blottings and genomicsequencingby primer exten sion. VM-26 stimulated cleavage in the satellite Ill DNA, whereas the other studied drugs did not. All four drugs stimulated cleavage in the histone gene cluster, but they yielded drug-specific cleavage intensity patterns. Cleavage sites by dh-EPI and VM-26 were sequenced in the histone H2A gene promoter and were shown to be distinct. DNA cleavage analysis In cloned DNA fragments with Drosophila topoisomerase II showed that drugs stimulated the same sites in vivo and in vitro. Strand cuts were in vivo staggered by 4 bases, and base sequences at major dh-EPI and VM-26 sites completely agreed with known in vitro drug sequence specificities. Moreover, DNA deavage reverted faster in the satellite ifi than in the histone repeats While stimulating similar levels of DNA breakage in bulk genomic DNA, dh.EPI and VM-26 markedly differed for cleavage extent and reversibifity In specific chromatin loci. The results demonstrate a high heterogeneity in the localization, extent, and reversibility of drug-stimulated DNA cleavage in the chromatin of living cells.

The effect of aspirin on the interaction of histone 05 and 05-DNA

The linker histones (H1 or H5) which play a key role in the folding of chromatin, are general repressors of gene expression. Nuclei of the mature chicken erythrocytes (and in some mammalian cells) contain both of them. Although the interaction of H5 with DNA is stronger than that of H1, it does not prevent the transcription of some erythroid-specific genes. It has been shown that some modificat...

RFLP Analysis of Beta‐Lactoglobulin Gene in Swamp and Murrah Buffaloes Using a Single Restriction Enzyme

An attempt has been made to analyze the distribution of the beta-lactoglobulin genotype in swamp buffaloes and Murrah buffaloes utilizing polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). Blood samples were taken from 50 swamp buffaloes and 50 Murrah buffaloes. The DNA was extracted by the phenol-chloroform method. The PCR-RFLP was performed using beta-lactoglobulin ...

Stable molecular changes during cell division without any change in the sequence of DNA molecules is known as epigenetic. Molecular mechanisms involved in this process, including histone modifications, methylation of DNA, protein complex and RNA antisense. Cancer genome changes happen through a combination of DNA hypermethylation, long-term epigenetic silencing with heterozygosis loss and genom...
