Cooked food mutagens from fried meat and fish have recently been suggested to contribute to the etiology of breast cancer. Thus, the most prevalent of these compounds, i.e. 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine, or rather its more mutagenic N-hydroxylated metabolite (N-OH-PhIP), forms DNA adducts in mammary cells, including human mammary epithelial (HME) cells. The objective of this s...

The involvement of O-sulphate esters in the directed O-methylation was investigated in vitro with a dialysed "high-speed' supernatant from rat liver as the enzyme preparation and the catechol compound 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid as the substrate. The enzyme reactions involved were studied separately with the O-methylated and O-sulphated derivatives. The rate of hydrolysis by arylsulphatase was 14...

The title compound, C19H15NO3, was synthesized by a Perkin reaction of 2-methyl-8-hy-droxy-quinoline and 4-formyl-2-methyl-benzoate in acetic anhydride under a nitro-gen atmosphere. The mol-ecule has an E conformation about the C=C bond, and the quinoline ring system and the benzene ring are inclined to one another by 29.22 (7)°. There is an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond in the 8-hy-droxy...

A reaction from various kinds of nitroquinoline with hydroxylamine in potassium hydroxide alkalinity produced a novel product, furazanoquinoline, besides the known amino derivatives. The products obtained were furazano [3,4-f] quinoline (5) from 5-nitroquinoline (1) and 6-nitroquinoline (6), and furazano [3,4-h] quinoline (10) from 7-nitroquinoline (8) and 8-nitroquinoline (11). The reaction me...

In the reaction of pyridine-2-carb-oxy-lic acid and stannic chloride in the presence of 2-methyl-8-hy-droxy-quinoline, the 2-methyl-8-hy-droxy-quinoline is protonated, yielding the title salt, (C(10)H(10)NO)[SnCl(4)(C(6)H(4)NO(2))]. The Sn(IV) atom in the anion is N,O-chelated by a pyridine-2-carboxyl-ate in a cis-SnNOCl(4) octa-hedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an O-H⋯O hyd...

The human nucleotide pool sanitization enzyme, MTH1, hydrolyzes 2-hydroxy-dATP and 8-hydroxy-dATP in addition to 8-hydroxy-dGTP. We report here that human MTH1 is highly specific for 2-hydroxy-ATP, among the cognate ribonucleoside triphosphates. The pyrophosphatase activities for 8-hydroxy-GTP, 2-hydroxy-ATP and 8-hydroxy-ATP were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. The kinetic ...
