Abstract
Earlier studies have shown that the profile of mutations induced by (+)-7R,8S-dihydroxy-9S,10R-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (+)-BPDE at the hypoxanthine (guanine) phosphoribosyltransferase (hprt) gene of Chinese hamster V79 cells was dependent on the concentration of (+)-BPDE. In the present study, we examined the effect of the concentration of (+)-BPDE on its mutational profile at the hprt gene in repair-deficient V-H1 cells (a derivative of V79 cells) to explore the role of DNA repair in the dose-dependent mutational profile of (+)-BPDE. Independent hprt mutant clones were isolated after exposing V-H1 cells to dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) or to low (4-6 nM; 95% cell survival) or high (40-48 nM; 31% cell survival) concentrations of (+)-BPDE in DMSO. The mutation frequencies for the DMSO control and for the low and high concentration groups were 0.1, 2.1 and 32.9 mutant colonies/10(5) survivors, respectively. The profile of mutations at the hprt gene was characterized for 148 (+)-BPDE-induced mutant clones and the results from the present study were compared with those obtained earlier with V79 cells. The data indicated that: (i) V-H1 cells were approximately 9-fold more sensitive to the cytotoxic effects of (+)-BPDE than V79 cells; (ii) the mutation frequency in V-H1 cells was similar to that observed in V79 cells following exposure to similar concentrations of (+)-BPDE; (iii) (+)-BPDE-induced mutations at guanine on the transcribed strand of the hprt gene were common in V-H1 cells but were extraordinarily rare in V79 cells; (iv) (+)-BPDE-induced mutations at adenine on the transcribed strand of the hprt gene were common in both V-H1 and V79 cells; (v) although exposure of V79 cells to different doses of (+)-BPDE resulted in a dose-dependent mutational profile at the hprt gene, this was not observed in V-H1 cells. Our observations indicate a defect in the transcription-coupled repair of (+)-BPDE-DNA adducts in V-H1 cells and that the repair activity deficient in V-H1 cells is essential for the dose-dependent mutational profile observed with (+)-BPDE in V79 cells.

Abstract
Specificities of murine glutathione (GSH) S-transferase (GST) isozymes mGSTA1-1, mGSTA2-2, mGSTA3-3 and mGSTA4-4 (alpha class), mGSTP1-1 (pi class) and mGSTM1-1 (mu class) for GSH conjugation of (-)-anti- and (+)-syn-stereoisomers of benzo[g]chrysene 11, 12-diol 13,14-epoxide (B[g]CDE), the activated metabolites of the environmental pollutant benzo[g]chrysene (B[g]C), have been determined. When GST activity was determined as a function of varying (-)-anti- or (+)-syn-B[g]CDE concentration (10-320 microM) at a fixed saturating concentration of GSH (2 mM), each isozyme obeyed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. mGSTA1-1 was significantly more efficient than other murine GSTs in the GSH conjugation of not only (-)-anti-stereoisomer but also (+)-syn-B[g]CDE. For example, the catalytic efficiency (k(cat)/K(m)) of mGSTA1-1 towards (-)-anti-B[g]CDE was approximately 2.3- to 16.6-fold higher compared with other murine GSTs. Likewise, mGSTA1-1 was approximately 2.7-, 6.7-, 4.4- and 12.4-fold more efficient than mGSTA2-2, mGSTA3-3, mGSTP1-1 and mGSTM1-1, respectively, in catalyzing the GSH conjugation of (+)-syn-B[g]CDE. Interestingly, mGSTA4-4, which also belongs to class alpha, was virtually inactive towards both stereoisomers of B[g]CDE. The results of the present study indicate that murine GSTs, especially alpha class isozymes, significantly differ in their ability to detoxify B[g]CDE stereoisomers and that mGSTA1-1 plays a major role in the detoxification of both (-)-anti- and (+)-syn-B[g]CDE, which among four B[g]CDE stereoisomers are formed from the carcinogen B[g]C as major DNA binding metabolites.

Abstract
The solution structure of the adduct derived from the covalent bonding of the fjord region (+)-(11S, 12R, 13R, 14S) stereoisomer of anti -11,12-dihydroxy-13,14-epoxy-11,12,13, 14-tetrahydrobenzo[g]chrysene, (+)- anti -B[g]CDE, to the exocyclic N(6)amino group of the adenine residue dA6, (designated (+)- trans-anti -(B[g]C)dA6), positioned opposite a thymine residue dT17 in the DNA sequence context d(C1-T2-C3-T4-C5-(B[g]C)A6-C7-T8-T9-C10-C11). d(G12-G13-A14-A15-G16-T17-G18-A19-G20++ +-A21-G22) (designated (B[g]C)dA. dT 11-mer duplex), has been studied using structural information derived from NMR data in combination with molecular dynamics (MD) calculations. The solution structure of the (+)- trans-anti -(B[g]C)dA.dT 11-mer duplex has been determined using an MD protocol where both interproton distance and dihedral angle restraints deduced from NOESY and COSY spectra are used during the refinement process, followed by additional relaxation matrix refinement to the observed NOESY intensities to account for spin diffusion effects. The results established that the covalently attached benzo[g]chrysene ring intercalates into the DNA helix directed towards the 5'-side of the modified strand and stacks predominantly with dT17 when intercalated between dC5.dG18 and (B[g]C)dA6.dT17 base-pairs. All base-pairs, including the modified (B[g]C)dA6.dT17 base-pair, are aligned through Watson-Crick pairing as in normal B -DNA. In addition, the potential strain associated with the highly sterically hindered fjord region of the aromatic portion of the benzo[g]chrysenyl ring is relieved through the adoption of a non-planar, propeller-like geometry within the chrysenyl ring system. This conformation shares common structural features with the related (+)- trans-anti -(B[c]Ph)dA adduct in the identical base sequence context, derived from the fjord region (+)-(1S,2R,3R,4S)-3, 4-dihydroxy-1,2-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[c]phenanthrene stereoisomer, in which intercalation is also observed towards the 5'-side of the modified dA6.dT17 base-pair.

Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is a widespread environmental carcinogen that must be activated by cellular metabolism to a diol epoxide form (BPDE) before it reacts with DNA. It has recently been shown that BPDE preferentially modifies the guanine in methylated 5'-CpG-3' sequences in the human p53 gene, providing one explanation for why these sites are mutational hot spots. Using purified duplex oligonucleotides containing identical methylated and unmethylated CpG sequences, we show here that BPDE preferentially modified the guanine in hemimethylated or fully methylated CpG sequences, producing between 3- and 8-fold more modification at this site. Analysis of this reaction using shorter duplex oligonucleotides indicated that it was the level of the (+)-trans isomer that was specifically increased. To determine if there were conformational differences between the methylated and unmethylated B[a]P-modified DNA sequences that may be responsible for this enhanced reactivity, a native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis was carried out using DNA containing isomerically pure B[a]P-DNA adducts. These experiments showed that each adduct resulted in an altered gel mobility in duplex DNA but that only the presence of a (+)-trans isomer and a methylated C 5' to the adduct resulted in a significant gel mobility shift compared with the unmethylated case.

Abstract
The potent mutagen/carcinogen 7R,8S-dihydroxy-9S, 10R-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene [(+)-anti-B[a]PDE], which is the activated form of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), is able to induce different kinds of mutations (G-->T, G-->A, etc.). One hypothesis for this is that different mutations are induced depending upon the conformation of its major adduct ([+ta]-B[a]P-N2-dG) when bypassed during DNA replication. Based on molecular modeling, there appear to be at least 16 potential conformations that the major adduct [+ta]-B[a]P-N2-dG can adopt in dsDNA. Regarding base substitution mutagenesis, eight conformations are most likely to be relevant. In two conformations the dG moiety of the adduct is base paired with its complementary dC and the B[a]P moiety is in the minor groove. In two others the dG moiety of the adduct is in the Hoogsteen orientation and the B[a]P moiety is in the major groove. There are four base displaced structures in which the B[a]P moiety of the adduct is stacked with the surrounding base pairs, two with dG in the major groove and two with dG in the minor groove. Using a simulated annealing protocol, these eight conformations were evaluated in five different DNA sequence contexts (5'-TGC-3', 5'-CGT-3', 5'-AGA-3', 5'-CGG-3' and 5'-GGG-3'); the latter were chosen because they may be particularly revealing about mutagenic mechanism based on studies with [+ta]-B[a]P-N2-dG and (+)-anti-B[a]PDE. For each conformation and each sequence context, 25 simulated annealing runs were conducted by systematically varying several parameters (such as the initial annealing temperature) based on a protocol established recently. The goal of this work was to exclude conformations that are clearly inferior. Three conformations are virtually always high in energy, including the two Hoogsteen oriented species and one of the base displaced species with dG in the major groove. Remarkably, the remaining five conformations are often quite close in energy and are deemed most likely to be relevant to mutagenesis (see accompanying paper).

Abstract
Molecular modeling (simulated annealing) was used to study the conformations in dsDNA of [+ta]-B[a]P-N2-dG (R.E. Kozack and E.L.Loechler, accompanying paper), which is the major benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) adduct. Sixteen classes of conformations were identified, and are analyzed herein vis-a-vis the two most prominent B[a]P mutations, G-->T and G-->A base substitutions. Eight conformations seem more relevant to frameshift mutagenesis, so they are excluded, leaving eight conformations as follows. Two conformations (BPmi5 and BPmi3) retain Watson-Crick G:C base pairing having the B[a]P moiety of the adduct in the minor groove. Two conformations (BPma5 and BPma3) have the Hoogsteen orientation with B[a]P in the major groove. Four conformations are base displaced and have B[a]P stacked in the helix with the dG moiety of the adduct displaced into either the major groove (Gma5 and Gma3) or the minor groove (Gmi5 and Gmi3). Three of these eight conformations (BPma5, BPma3 and Gma3) are universally high in energy. The two conformations that retain G:C base pairing potential (BPmi5 and BPmi3) are likely to be non-mutagenic. Of the three remaining conformations, Gmi5 can be relatively low in energy, but is distorted. A correlation exists between the calculated energies for the remaining two base displaced conformations and mutagenesis for [+ta]-B[a]P-N2-dG, leading to the hypothesis that Gma5 is responsible for G-->T mutations and Gmi3 is responsible for G-->A mutations. Gma5 and Gmi3 resemble each other, except that dG is in the major and minor grooves, respectively. An incipient rationale for this hypothesis is discussed: DNA polymerase might be triggered to follow a different mutagenic pathway depending upon whether a non-informational lesion has bulk protruding into the major or minor groove. A pathway for interconversion between these eight conformations is also proposed and its implications are discussed; e.g. four steps are required to interconvert between Gma5 and Gmi3.

Abstract
Site-specific carcinogen-modified oligonucleotides are often used in site-directed mutagenesis and other biological and biochemical studies of structure-function relationships. Postsynthetic analysis and confirmation of the sites of carcinogen binding in such oligonucleotides is an important step in the characterization of these site-specific carcinogen-DNA adducts. It is shown here that negative ion mode electrospray tandem mass spectrometry methods and collision-induced dissociation offer a rapid and convenient approach for the sequencing of products derived from the reaction of the carcinogenic and mutagenic metabolite of benzo[a]pyrene, the diol epoxide r7,t8-dihydroxy-t9,10-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (anti-BPDE), with the 11-mer oligonucleotide d(CATGCGGCCTAC). The site of reaction of anti-BPDE with either one of the three dG residues in this oligonucleotide can be accurately established by comparing the mass/charge ratios of the observed collision-induced dissociation fragments with calculated values.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) S-transferases (GSTs) have an important role in the detoxification of (+)-anti-7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-oxy-7,8,9, 10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene [(+)-anti-BPDE], which is the ultimate carcinogen of benzo[a]pyrene. However, the fate and/or biological activity of the GSH conjugate of (+)-anti-BPDE [(-)-anti-BPD-SG] is not known. We now report that (-)-anti-BPD-SG is a competitive inhibitor (Ki 19 microM) of Pi-class isoenzyme mGSTP1-1, which among murine hepatic GSTs is most efficient in the GSH conjugation of (+)-anti-BPDE. Thus the inhibition of mGSTP1-1 activity by (-)-anti-BPD-SG might interfere with the GST-catalysed GSH conjugation of (+)-anti-BPDE unless one or more mechanisms exist for the removal of the conjugate. The results of the present study indicate that (-)-anti-BPD-SG is transported across canalicular liver plasma membrane (cLPM) in an ATP-dependent manner. The ATP-dependent transport of (-)-anti-[3H]BPD-SG followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Km 46 microM). The ATP dependence of the (-)-anti-BPD-SG transport was confirmed by measuring the stimulation of ATP hydrolysis (ATPase activity) by the conjugate in the presence of cLPM protein, which also followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. In contrast, a kinetic analysis of ATP-dependent uptake of the model conjugate S-[3H](2,4-dinitrophenyl)-glutathione ([3H]DNP-SG) revealed the presence of a high-affinity and a low-affinity transport system in mouse cLPM, with apparent Km values of 18 and 500 microM respectively. The ATP-dependent transport of (-)-anti-BPD-SG was inhibited competitively by DNP-SG (Ki 1.65 microM). Likewise, (-)-anti-BPD-SG was found to be a potent competitive inhibitor of the high-affinity component of DNP-SG transport (Ki 6.3 microM). Our results suggest that GST-catalysed conjugation of (+)-anti-BPDE with GSH, coupled with ATP-dependent transport of the resultant conjugate across cLPM, might be the ultimate detoxification pathway for this carcinogen.

Abstract
In vitro DNA replication by exonuclease-deficient T7 DNA polymerase (Sequenase) and an exonuclease deficient T4 DNA polymerase was examined on a 244-nucleotide DNA template treated with three electrophilic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) metabolites: racemic trans-7,8-dihydroxy-anti-9,10-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (BaPDE), trans-2,3-dihydroxy-anti-1,10b-epoxy-10b,1,2,3-tetrahydrofluoranthene (FADE), or 3,4-epoxy-3,4-dihydrocyclopenta[cd]pyrene (CPPE). The DNA replication terminated opposite template guanines and, to a lesser extent, at template adenines, as expected, as purines were modified preferentially by the chemical treatments. Analysis of the products synthesized on the damaged templates indicated that bypass replication by Sequenase proceeded in three steps: (1) replication first terminated one base 3' to each adduct; (2) a nucleotide was then incorporated opposite the PAH-modified base; and (3) replication continued at some sites to give full bypass of the lesions. The rate of lesion bypass was affected by the type of chemical adduct, the sequence context of the adduct, and the concentration of deoxynucleoside triphosphates. Short DNA repeats appeared to facilitate translesion replication.

Abstract
Like other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, certain metabolites of benz[a]anthracene have been implicated as potent carcinogens. These effects are thought to be caused by the covalent binding of these species to nucleophilic groups on the bases of DNA. To address the molecular mechanisms by which these molecules induce mutations, this study employed oligonucleotides containing four site-specific N6 adenine-benz[a]anthracene diol epoxide adducts. Using a prokaryotic in vivo replication system, we have shown that both non-bay region anti-trans-benz[a]anthracene adducts are essentially nonmutagenic. In contrast, the bay region anti-trans-benz[a]anthracene lesions do induce point mutations at the adduct site. The mutagenic frequency of these bay region lesions is dependent on the stereochemistry about the adduct-forming bond, as well as the strain of Escherichia coli in which they are replicated. The ability of the bacterial replication machinery to bypass the lesions does not correlate with the differences observed in their mutagenesis. While both non-bay region adducts are readily bypassed in vivo, the bay region adducts are both blocking to approximately the same degree. In vitro studies of the interactions of E. coli DNA polymerase III with these adducts have also been undertaken to further dissect the relationship between adduct structure and biological activity.

Abstract
Human nucleotide excision repair processes carcinogen-DNA adducts at highly variable rates, even at adjacent sites along individual genes. Here, we identify conformational determinants of fast or slow repair by testing excision of N2-guanine adducts formed by benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide (BPDE), a potent and ubiquitous mutagen that induces mainly G x C-->T x A transversions and frameshift deletions. We found that human nucleotide excision repair processes the predominant (+)-trans-BPDE-N2-dG adduct 15 times less efficiently than a standard acetylaminofluorene-C8-dG lesion in the same sequence. No difference was observed between (+)-trans- and (-)-trans-BPDE-N2-dG, but excision was enhanced about 10-fold by changing the adduct configurations to either (+)-cis- or (-)-cis-BPDE-N2-dG. Conversely, excision of (+)-cis- and (-)-cis- but not (+)-trans-BPDE-N2-dG was reduced about 10-fold when the complementary cytosine was replaced by adenine, and excision of these BPDE lesions was essentially abolished when the complementary deoxyribonucleotide was missing. Thus, a set of chemically identical BPDE adducts yielded a greater-than-100-fold range of repair rates, demonstrating that nucleotide excision repair activity is entirely dictated by local DNA conformation. In particular, this unique comparison between structurally highly defined substrates shows that fast excision of BPDE-N2-dG lesions is correlated with displacement of both the modified guanine and its partner base in the complementary strand from their normal intrahelical positions. The very slow excision of carcinogen-DNA adducts located opposite deletion sites reveals a cellular strategy that minimizes the fixation of frameshifts after mutagenic translesion synthesis.

Abstract
Genotoxic effects of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) and its reactive metabolites (+/-)-anti-benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-diol 9,10-oxide ((+/-)-anti-BPDE) were comparatively investigated in vitro with the permanent human fibroblast cell line MRC5CV1. Induced DNA adducts were measured by 32P-postlabeling, DNA strand breakage was determined by the comet assay and the HPRT gene mutation test was used to detect cytotoxicity and mutagenicity. Treatment of MRC5CV1 cells with S9 mix-activated BP or with (+/-)-anti-BPDE resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in DNA adducts and strand breaks. Genotoxic effects of BP and (+/-)-anti-BPDE were detected by 32P-postlabeling and the comet assay with similar sensitivity. However, under the same experimental conditions, a clear induction of gene mutations was only found after (+/-)-anti-BPDE treatment. The relationship between the induction of primary DNA alterations like DNA strand breaks and DNA adducts and the induction of gene mutations is discussed.

Abstract
In the P53 tumor suppressor gene, a remarkably large number of somatic mutations are found at methylated CpG dinucleotides. We have previously mapped the distribution of (+/-) anti-7beta,8alpha-dihydroxy-9alpha,10alpha-epoxy -7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (BPDE) adducts along the human P53 gene [Denissenko, M. F., Pao, A., Tang, M.-s. & Pfeifer, G. P. (1996) Science 274, 430-432]. Strong and selective formation of adducts occurred at guanines in CpG sequences of codons 157, 248, and 273, which are the major mutational hot spots in lung cancer. Chromatin structure was not involved in preferential modification of these sites by BPDE. To investigate other possible mechanisms underlying the selectivity of BPDE binding, we have mapped the adducts in plasmid DNA containing genomic P53 sequences. The adduct profile obtained was different from that in genomic DNA. However, when cytosines at CpG sequences were converted to 5-methylcytosines by the CpG-specific methylase SssI and the DNA was subsequently treated with BPDE, adduct hot spots were created which were similar to those seen in genomic DNA where all CpGs are methylated. A strong positive effect of 5-methylcytosine on BPDE adduct formation at CpG sites was also documented with sequences of the PGK1 gene derived from an active or inactive human X chromosome and having differential methylation patterns. These results show that methylated CpG dinucleotides, in addition to being an endogenous promutagenic factor, may represent a preferential target for exogenous chemical carcinogens. The data open new avenues concerning the reasons that the majority of mutational hot spots in human genes are at CpGs.

Abstract
Single compounds can generate complex DNA adduct patterns by reactions through different pathways, with different target nucleotides and through different configurations of the products. DNA adduct analysis by 32P-HPLC was improved by adding an isocratic plateau in an otherwise linear gradient, thereby enhancing resolution of predictable retention time intervals. This enhanced 32P-HPLC technique was used to analyze and at least partly resolve 14 out of 16 available benzo[c]phenanthrene deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine adduct standards, 8 out of 8 available benzo[a]pyrene deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine adduct standards, and 51 peaks from 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-calf thymus DNA reaction products. The same type of gradient modifications could be used to enhance resolution in analyses of other complex DNA adduct mixtures, e.g., in vivo in humans.

Abstract
Alkylation of DNA by 7r,8t-dihydroxy,9t,10t-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (anti-BPDE) forms mainly trans adducts (with respect to the C-9/10 positions). We recently described a halide-catalyzed pathway that preferentially generates cis adducts and now report that the trans chlorohydrin of anti-BPDE (trans-BPDCH) is an intermediate in the chloride-catalyzed reaction. trans-BPDCH was synthesized, and both it and anti-BPDE were reacted with deoxyadenosine as a model DNA nucleophile. The stereochemistry and yields of deoxyadenosine adducts were determined as a function of chloride concentration. In the absence of salt, the fraction of cis adducts obtained from anti-BPDE and trans-BPDCH are 0.33 and 0.67, respectively. Adding sodium chloride increases the fraction of cis adducts (and consequently decreases the fraction of trans adducts), with the midpoint of the increase for both substrates at approximately 35-40 mM chloride. The chloride-dependent curves for BPDE and BPDCH converge at 1 M chloride, where the fraction of cis adducts is 0.88. Chloride also increases the total yield of cis adducts with either substrate, whereas the yield of trans adducts from the chlorohydrin is not significantly changed. These results support a mechanism by which chloride ion undergoes nucleophilic addition to the benzylic C-10 position of anti-BPDE. This generates a trans halohydrin that alkylates DNA with inversion of configuration to form a cis adduct. This pathway may have biological significance because chlorohydrins could form in serum or in cells with relatively high intracellular concentrations of chloride.

Abstract
To determine the effect of various stereoisomers of benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol 9,10-epoxide (BPDE) on translesion bypass by human immunodeficiency virus-1 reverse transcriptase and its alpha-helix H mutants, six 33-mer templates were constructed bearing site- and stereospecific adducts. This in vitro model system was chosen to understand the structure-function relationships between the polymerase and damaged DNA during replication. Comparison of the replication pattern between wild type human immunodeficiency virus-1 reverse transcriptase and its mutants, using primers which were 3' to the lesion, revealed essentially similar patterns. While these primers terminated with all three of the C10R and two of the C10S BPDE-adducted templates 1 base 5' and 1 base 3' to the damaged site respectively, (+)-anti-trans-(C10S) BPDE-adducted DNA alone permitted the formation of full-length products. Utilization of a primer with its 3'-hydroxyl 1 base beyond the lesion resulted in full-length products with all the C10S BPDE-adducted templates and the (-)-syn-trans-(C10R)-BPDE-adducted template, following replication with either the wild type or mutant enzymes. However, the other two C10R BPDE-adducted templates failed to allow any primer extension, even with the wild type enzyme. Although T.P depletion studies further confirmed the differential primer extension abilities using the C10R and C10S adducted templates, their binding affinities were similar, yet distinct from the unadducted template.

Abstract
Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) coupled with negative ion electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) is used for the detection and identification of adducts formed from the reaction of DNA with (+/-)-anti-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene-7,8-diol 9,10-epoxide (BPDE),an active metabolite of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP). Results presented in this paper demonstrate low nanogram detection limits ( < 10 ng or < 15 pmol) for normal scan spectra and collision-induced dissociation spectra of the main nucleotide adduct formed from this reaction. (BPDE reacts predominantly with the exocyclic amino group of guanine.) Exploitation of selective reaction monitoring (SRM) produces detection limits in the low picogram range ( < 85 pg or < 130 fmol). The application of sample stacking significantly increases the concentration detection limit (to approximately 10(-8) M). Nucleotide adducts are negatively charged at most pHs and are therefore ideally suited to the stacking process used in this research. These techniques have been applied to the analysis of the adducts formed from the in vitro reaction of BPDE with DNA. In addition it is shown that CZE-ES-MS, combined with solid-phase sample cleanup, can detect adducts at levels of four adducts in 10(7) unmodified bases or less.

Abstract
The mutagenicity of fjord-region benzo[c]chrysene diol-epoxide (BcCDE) stereoisomers((+) anti-BcCDE, (-)anti-BcCDE, (+)syn-BcCDE, and (-)syn-BcCDE) was studied in a forward-mutation system. pEC plasmid containing the human c-Ha-ras-1 proto-oncogene was reacted in vitro with each optically active isomer separately and transfected into NIH/3T3 cells. Morphologically transformed foci were cloned, and DNA obtained from these foci was tested for the presence of Ha-ras-1 sequence by Southern blot analysis. A total of 50 transformed foci (11-14 for each diastereomer) were generated. To determine the nature of mutations responsible for activating the proto-oncogene, regions of the gene likely to contain the activating mutations were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and then subjected to hybridization with specific oligonucleotides. Gene mutations in 42 of 50 transformed foci were characterized by these methods, and most were found at codon 61 (27), followed by codons 12 (13) and 13 (two). All mutations observed were either G --> T or A --> A --> T transversions. Thirty-six were G --> T transversion mutations occurring at codons 61, 12, and 13. The remaining six were A --> T transversions at codon 61.BcCDE stereoisomers may specifically attack guanine and adenine and result in the mutations observed. Some differences in codon preference but not in the types of mutations were found among these optically active isomers.

Abstract
Using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and low-temperature, laser-induced fluorescence line narrowing (FLN) and non-line narrowing (NLN) spectroscopic methods, the conformational characteristics of stereochemically defined and site-specific adducts derived from the binding of 7 beta,8 alpha-dihydroxy-9 alpha,10 alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10- tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (anti-BPDE, a metabolite of the environmental carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene), to DNA were studied. The focus of these studies was on the four stereochemically distinct anti-BPDE modified duplexes 5'-d(CCATCGCTACC).(GGTAGCGATGG), where G denotes the lesion site derived from trans or cis addition of the exocyclic amino group of guanine to the C10 position of either (+) or (-)-anti-BPDE. PAGE experiments under non-denaturing conditions showed that the (+)-trans adduct causes a significantly greater retardation in the electrophoretic mobility than the other three adducts, probably the result of important adduct-induced distortions of the duplex structure. Low-temperature fluorescence studies in frozen aqueous buffer matrices showed that the (+)-trans adduct adopts primarily an external conformation with only minor interactions with the helix, but a smaller fraction (approximately 25%) appears to exists in a partially base-stacked conformation. The (-)-trans adduct exists almost exclusively (approximately 97%) in an external conformation. Both cis adducts were found to be intercalated; strong electron-phonon coupling observed in their FLN spectra provided additional evidence for significant pi-pi stacking interactions between the pyrenyl residues and the bases. FLN spectroscopy is shown to be suitable for distinguishing between trans and cis adducts, but lesions with either (+)- or (-)-trans, or (+)- or (-)-cis stereochemical characteristics showed very similar vibrational patterns.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A working hypothesis was proposed that the major adduct of (+)-anti-B[a]PDE (formed at N2-Gua) is able to induce different base-substitution mutations (e.g., GC-->TA vs. GC-->AT) depending upon its conformation in DNA, which can be influenced by various factors, notably DNA sequence context. Frameshift mutations are also common with (+)-anti-B[a]PDE, and other work suggested that the frameshift and base-substitution mutagenesis pathways are coupled. The simplest hypothesis to rationalize this interrelationship is that a single (+)-anti-B[a]PDE adduct in a single conformation can be bypassed via either a frameshift or a base-substitution pathway. This counterintuitive notion can be reconciled if there are two different kinds of conformations on the pathway to mutagenesis: a class I conformation, which is the initial conformation of a DNA adduct in double-stranded DNA before its encounter with a DNA polymerase, and a class II conformation, which is the conformation that forms at a single-strand/double-strand DNA junction during replication by a DNA polymerase. Thus, GC-->TA and GC-->AT mutations may be induced by different class I conformations, whereas base substitution and frameshift mutations may be induced by the same class I conformation but by different class II conformations. The pathway of mutagenesis would be dictated by the relevant class I and II conformations, which in turn would be controlled by various factors, notably DNA sequence context.

Abstract
The apparent persistence length of enzymatically linearized pIBI30 plasmid DNA molecules approximately 2300 bp long, as measured by a hydrodynamic linear flow dichroism method, is markedly decreased after covalent binding of the highly tumorigenic benzo[a]pyrene metabolite 7R,8S-dihydroxy-9S,10R-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene [(+)-anti-BPDE]. In striking contrast, the binding of the non-tumorigenic, mirror-image 7S,8R,9R,10S enantiomer [(-)-anti-BPDE] to DNA has no measurable effect on its alignment in hydrodynamic flow gradients (< or = 2.2% of the DNA bases modified). In order to relate this effect to BPDE-nucleotide lesions of defined stereochemistry, the bending induced by site-specifically placed and stereochemically defined (+)- and (-)-anti-BPDE-N2-dG lesions in an 11mer deoxyoligonucleotide duplex was studied by ligation and gel electrophoresis methods. Out of the four stereochemically isomeric anti-BPDE-N2-deoxyguanosyl (dG) adducts with either (+)-trans, (-)-trans, (+)-cis, and (-)-cis adduct stereochemistry, only the (+)-trans adduct gives rise to prominent bends or flexible hinge joints in the modified oligonucleotide duplexes. Since both anti-BPDE enantiomers are known to bind preferentially to dG (> or = 85%), these observations can account for the differences in persistence lengths of DNA modified with either (+)-anti-BPDE or the chiral (-)-anti-BPDE isomer.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are metabolized to a wide variety of oxidized derivatives, including highly reactive diol epoxides which alkylate DNA. The reaction lacks regio- or stereospecificity but occurs primarily at the exocyclic amino groups of deoxyguanosine and deoxyadenosine. An efficient route to N6 adducts of deoxyadenosine is described using as examples those arising from trans opening of the anti-tetrahydrodiol epoxides of naphthalene, benzo[a]pyrene, and benzo[c]phenanthrene. The adducts were synthesized in 50-92% yields by reaction of 6-fluoropurine 2'-deoxyriboside with aminotriols formed by trans opening of racemic dihydrodiol epoxides using liquid NH3. The diastereomeric adducts were separated by HPLC and their absolute configurations were assigned by circular dichroism. 1H NMR studies revealed significant differences in conformation of the tetrahydroaromatic ring between the sterically unrestricted naphthalene derivative and the sterically congested derivatives of benzo[a]pyrene and benzo[c]phenanthrene. These differences may have a bearing on the higher carcinogenicity shown by the latter hydrocarbons. Undecadeoxyoligonucleotides bearing regio- and stereochemically defined adenine N6-anti-trans-benzo[a]pyrene adducts have been prepared.

Abstract
The (+/-)-anti-dihydrodiol epoxides (DE) of benzo[a]pyrene (BP), chrysene (Chr), benzo[c]phenanthrene (BcPh) and dibenz[a,h]anthracene (DBA) were incubated in the presence of glutathione (GSH) with hepatic cytosol from untreated and Aroclor 1254 pretreated rats and with the Mu-class glutathione transferase (GST) HTP II from rat liver. The diastereoisomeric GSH conjugates formed were separated, identified and quantified by HPLC employing synthetic reference compounds. All (+/-)-anti-dihydrodiol epoxides investigated in this study were proven to be substrates of the cytosolic GSTs. The highly mutagenic and carcinogenic (+)-anti-DE with R,S,S,R absolute configuration was preferentially conjugated in the case of BP and Chr. Aroclor 1254 pretreatment increased the turnover 2-3-fold and changed the enantioselectivity. The previously purified GST HTP II exhibited a high degree of enantioselectivity (> or = 95%) towards the R,S,S,R-configurated enantiomer in the case of the bay-region (+/-)-anti-BPDE, (+/-)-anti-ChrDE and (+/-)-anti-DBADE, whereas in the case of fjord-region (+/-)-anti-BcPhDE both enantiomers were good substrates. The contribution of HTP II to the enzymatic activity of the cytosolic GST pool was estimated to be in the range of 11-32%. In agreement with previous results, the observed enantioselectivity of the purified enzyme seems to be of minor significance considering the total GST pool in the liver.

Abstract
The (+)-trans-anti-benzo[a]pyrene adduct formed at the N2 amino group of guanine is the major adduct found after metabolic activation of the ubiquitous carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene. The carcinogenic and mutagenic properties of the (+)-trans-anti-BP adduct, as well as related adducts, have been extensively studied. A DNA duplex containing a (+)-trans-anti-benzo[a]pyrene adduct covalently attached to the G8 nucleotide in the sequence d(CCTATGT[BP-G]CAC).d(GTGCACATAGG) was synthesized and the structure characterized by one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, in conjunction with energy minimization and molecular dynamics. This BP-11-mer duplex exhibits NOESY cross-peaks between benzo[a]pyrene protons and BP-G8, C9, A16, and C17 nucleotide protons that clearly delineate the location of the BP moiety in the minor groove of a B-type duplex with the pyrene ring oriented toward the 5' end of the modified strand. Large upfield shifts of A16 and C17 sugar resonances in the partner strand show that the pyrene moiety is situated near these sugars. Analysis of the spectra was complicated by the presence of chemical exchange line broadening of protons located near the (...T[BP-G]C...).(...GCA...) adduct site which shows the presence of a minor conformation for this BP-modified duplex in which TA is the 5' neighboring base pair. Distance restraints determined from NOESY spectra recorded at 20 degrees C were used in restrained and unrestrained energy minimization and molecular dynamics simulations to obtain a structure characteristic of the predominant conformation of the BP-11-mer duplex. The important structural features of the BP-11-mer are similar to those reported by Cosman et al. [(1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 89, 1914-1918] for a (+)-trans-anti-BP adduct at a (...C[BP-G]C...).(...GCG...) sequence in which CG is the 5' neighboring base pair. No evidence of a conformational equilibrium was reported in this duplex, from which we conclude that the presence of a 5' TA base pair plays a role in the conformational equilibrium. Watson-Crick base pairing is retained in the predominant conformer of the (+)-trans-anti-BP modified duplex, which provides a visualization of a structure that could allow faithful replication. The exchange rate could not be slowed sufficiently to allow individual distance parameters to be obtained for the minor conformer.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol 9,10-epoxide (BPDE), a metabolite of the widespread environmental pollutant benzo[a]pyrene, is a mutagenic in both bacterial and mammalian systems. Toward understanding the mutagenic effects of different stereoisomers of BPDE at specific sites in DNA, six stereochemically defined BPDE adducts were constructed on adenine N6 at position 2 of the human N-ras 61 codon within an 11-base oligonucleotide fragment. Both the nonadducted and BPDE-adducted N-ras 61 11-mers were inserted into a unique EcoRI site in single-stranded M13mp7L2 DNA and utilized for in vivo studies. The ligation efficiencies of BPDE-adducted 11-mers into the single-stranded vector were determined by Southern hybridization and confirmed by electron microscopy. Repair-deficient AB2480 E. coli cells were transformed with adducted and non-adducted DNA samples. The resultant plaque-forming abilities were used to evaluate the replication competence of the various BPDE adducts with respect to the nonadducted 11-mer. Point mutations due to aberrant replication at the adducted site were identified by the technique of differential DNA hybridization. All of the six BPDE adducts examined were mutagenic in vivo, generating exclusively A-->G mutations at frequencies ranging from 0.26 to 1.20%. In vitro replication studies using these BPDE-adducted 11-mers involved primer extension assays with Klenow fragment. All of the BPDE-modified templates demonstrated distinct blockage at the adducted site and/or 1 base 3' to the adducted site, allowing essentially no translesion synthesis to form fully extended polymerization products in vitro.

Abstract
(+)-anti-B[a]PDE-induced mutagenesis is being investigated, including in a supF gene of the E. coli plasmid pUB3. Based upon various findings a working hypothesis was proposed that the major adduct of (+)-anti-B[a]PDE (formed at N2-Gua) is able to induce different base substitution mutations (e.g., GC-->TA vs. GC-->AT vs. GC-->CG) depending upon its conformation in DNA, which can be influenced by various factors, such as DNA sequence context. Frameshift mutations are also significant and are analyzed herein. In virtually all cases one of three possibilities is observed: (1) some treatments change frameshift and base substitution mutation frequency (MF) in a quantitatively parallel fashion; (2) other treatments, which change frameshift MF, can change base substitution MF in a quantitatively reciprocal fashion; finally, (3) there are treatments that do not change frameshift MF, and also do not change base substitution MF. (Changes can be brought about by SOS induction, differing DNA sequence context, or heating adducted pUB3 prior to transformation. Why different kinds of changes result in (1) vs. (2) vs. (3) is discussed.) Thus, base substitution and frameshift mutagenesis pathways appear to be coupled in some way, which is most easily rationalized if both pathways are interrelated. The simplest mechanism to rationalize this coupling is that a single (+)-anti-B[a]PDE adduct in a single conformation can be bypassed via either a frameshift or a base substitution pathway. The surprising implication is that--although different conformations are likely to be required to induce different base substitution mutations (e.g., GC-->TA vs. GC-->AT; see above)--a single conformation can give rise to either a base substitution or a frameshift mutation. Frameshift and base substitution pathways must eventually diverge, and it is proposed that this is controlled by factors such as DNA sequence context.

Abstract
The solid-matrix luminescence properties and several calculated photophysical parameters of two important products from the benzo(a)pyrene-DNA adducts were compared. The products were benzo(a)pyrene-r-7,t-8,9,c-10-tetrahydrotetrol (I-1) and 7R,8S,9S-trihydroxy-10R-(N2-deoxyguanosyl-3'-phosphate)-7,8,9,10- tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyrene (BPDE-dG). The solid-matrix luminescence data were obtained for I-1 and BPDE-dG adsorbed on two different solid matrices, namely, 1% alpha-cyclodextrin (CD)/NaCl and 25% trehalose/NaCl and at two different temperatures (93 K and 296 K). The 25% trehalose/NaCl gave higher fluorescence and phosphorescence quantum yields from both I-1 and BPDE-dG in contrast to the 1% alpha-CD/NaCl matrix. The BPDE-dG showed lower fluorescence quantum yields on the solid matrices compared to I-1. The lower fluorescence quantum yields for BPDE-dG were attributed to a photoinduced electron transfer mechanism. In contrast to the room-temperature solution fluorescence of BPDE-dG, BPDE-dG gave rather high fluorescence quantum yields at room temperature when adsorbed on the two solid matrices. From solid-matrix luminescence quantum yields and solid-matrix luminescence lifetimes, many photophysical parameters were calculated and compared. Several differences among the rate constants were noted with the two solid matrices for BPDE-dG and I-1. For example, BPDE-dG showed internal conversion at 296 K with 25% trehalose/NaCl, but no internal conversion was observed at 93 K with this solid matrix. Also, for BPDE-dG the phosphorescence rate constants at 296 K and 93 K were very small with 25% trehalose/NaCl, but the intersystem crossing rate constants from the triplet state to the ground state were very large.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The distribution of hydrocarbon-DNA adducts through the supF gene in plasmid pS189 was examined using the polymerase arrest assay. For three hydrocarbon dihydrodiol epoxides, derived from 5-methylchrysene, 7-methylbenz[a]anthracene, and benzo[a]pyrene, that exhibit a preference for reaction with guanine residues in DNA, polymerase arrest spectra were similar but not identical. For each agent, guanines in different sequence contexts exhibited varying reactivities and each specific guanine did not necessarily respond to each agent in the same fashion. Thus, sequence context together with the individual dihydrodiol epoxide's chemical and physical properties all play a role in determining sites and extents of reaction within a specific gene. The polymerase arrest data were not predictive of the known sites of mutation hotspots for these dihydrodiol epoxides in the supF gene indicating that further action upon the adducted DNA by repair systems is probably necessary to determine which specific chemical adducts will ultimately give rise to mutation.

Abstract
Optical spectroscopic techniques have been used to characterize adducts formed upon reaction of the (+)- and (-)-enantiomers of 7R,8S-dihydroxy 9S,10R-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (anti-BPDE) to DNA or synthetic oligonucleotides. The reaction yields preferentially adducts in which the exocyclic aminogroup of deoxyguanosine is bound to the C10 position of the diol epoxide either cis (BPDEc-N2-G adduct) or trans (BPDEt-N2-G adduct) relative to the hydroxyl group at the C9 position. The BPDEc-N2-G and BPDEt-N2-G adducts fall into the categories of type I and type II complexes, respectively. Two-dimensional NMR in conjunction with energy minimization computation have provided detailed information on the solution structure of single adducts localized in oligonucleotides. The results demonstrate that the pyrenyl chromophores of both the (+)- and (-)-BPDEt-N2-G adduct are located in a widened minor groove and directed towards the 5'-end [(+)-BPDEt-N2-G] or the 3'-end [(-)-BPDEt-N2-G] of the modified strand. The chromophore of the (+)-BPDEc-N2-G adduct is quasi-intercalated into the oligonucleotide and associated with a displacement of the deoxyguanosine ring into the minor groove. Replication of racemic or (+)-anti-BPDE modified DNA in mammalian cells leads predominantly to single point mutations of transversion type (GC-->TA). The mutagenic specificity however, appears to be determined by the base sequence context and local conformation at the adduct site. Cooperative adduct formation at certain base sequences is suggested by excimer fluorescence, most probably derived from two closely located (+)-BPDEt-N2-G adducts in adjacent base pairs on opposite DNA-strands.

Abstract
The alkylation of DNA by racemic 7r,8t-dihydroxy-9t,10t-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (anti-BPDE) exhibits a strong preference for formation of trans adducts between the N2 deoxyguanosine alkylation site and the (+)-enantiomer of anti-BPDE. In the presence of 10 mM buffer with no added salt, 98% of the adducts formed with native calf thymus DNA result from trans opening of the epoxide ring. The strong selectivity for trans adduct formation obtained with duplex DNA at low salt concentration is found to a lesser degree with poly(G) but is nearly absent with dAMP. When DNA adducts are formed in 10 mM MgCl2 or 1 M NaCl, the proportion of cis adducts increases to approximately 7 and approximately 26%, respectively. At low salt, 10 mM MgCl2, and 1 M NaCl, deoxyguanosine adducts are approximately 1%, 6%, and 24% cis, whereas deoxyadenosine adducts are approximately 11%, 14%, and 37% cis, respectively. NaCl also increases the proportion of cis adducts formed with poly(G) and dAMP. It is proposed that the increase in cis-adduct formation due to salt results from SN1 attack of chloride ion on the BPDE carbocation, forming a trans chlorohydrin, followed by SN2 attack of DNA.

Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene, an extremely potent procarcinogen and mutagen, is metabolized to a variety of products, including the ultimate carcinogen 7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-epoxy- 7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene. This product of biotransformation reacts with DNA, forming a series of adducts principally at the N2 position of guanine that differ in their stereochemistry and exhibit unique biological properties. In order to gain a better understanding of the effects on RNA synthesis of these adducts, we used purified bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase to transcribe a series of templates containing one of four stereoisomerically pure BPDE-guanine lesions--(+)-trans-,(-)-trans-,(+)-cis-anti-N2-BPDE-guanine--or no damaged bases. To construct suitable double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides for these studies, we annealed an 11-mer containing a site-specific stereoisomerically pure N2-BPDE-guanine adduct, a 37-mer, and a 10-mer to a complementary 58-base sequence of single-stranded DNA. The oligomers were ligated, purified, and reannealed. The resulting DNA template contained the promoter for T7 RNA polymerase and a BPDE adduct at position +16 following the transcription initiation site. The results of the transcription assays clearly demonstrate that each of the adducts inhibits elongation by T7 RNA polymerase, but they do so to significantly different extents, depending on the stereochemical characteristics of the BPDE-modified guanine. The order of inhibition is (+)-trans > (-)-trans > (+)-cis > (-)-cis, when the amount of full-length transcript for each is compared to that obtained for an unmodified template. Furthermore, premature termination of RNA synthesis occurs at or near the site of the BPDE lesion as evidenced by the formation of discrete, truncated transcripts. These results might be related to the fact that the pyrenyl moiety of the trans-BPDE adducts is situated in the minor groove of double-stranded DNA, but is quasi-intercalated into the double helix in the case of the cis stereoisomers.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
