Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) suffers extensive damage from the environment, however, the enzymes involved in the repair of mtDNA are still unknown. Here, we partially purified mitochondrial endonuclease G (Endo G) from the bovine heart, and examined the action of Endo G on damaged DNA. Treatment of DNA with L-ascorbic acid or peplomycin, that introduces single-strand breaks through active oxygen radicals, greatly enhanced the susceptibility to nucleolytic attacks from Endo G. The enzyme cleaved at or near sites where single-strand breaks were present in the opposite strand. Cisplatin-mediated DNA damage, which causes intrastrand crosslinks between adjacent guanine residues, also facilitated Endo G digestion, indicating that the enzyme can recognize local distortions in the duplex DNA introduced by adducts. These nucleolytic properties of Endo G in vitro suggest its possible involvement in the maintenance of mtDNA by eliminating defective genomes from the multicopy pool.

Abstract
Single-strand-specific nucleases, which act on single-stranded nucleic acids and single-stranded regions in double-stranded nucleic acids, are multifunctional enzymes and are ubiquitous in distribution. They find wide application as analytical tools in molecular biology research, although enzymes such as P1 nuclease are also used for production of flavor enhancers such as 5' IMP and 5' GMP. Because these enzymes are mainly used as analytical tools, very little attention was paid to aspects relating to their structure-function relationships. However, during the last few years considerable developments have taken place in this area. Single-strand-specific nucleases, their purification, characteristics, biological role, and applications have been reviewed.

Abstract
DNA sensitivity to digestion with nuclease S1 was investigated in cells irradiated with gamma rays, or treated with the antitumor drug adriamycin (Adr). The nuclease-resistant DNA fraction was determined by propidium iodide staining. Treated cells were found to be more sensitive to nuclease digestion than the undamaged controls. Gamma ray-induced strand breaks were detectable at doses up to 10 Gy; an increase in the reaction temperature, from 37 degrees to 63 degrees C, was necessary in order to detect higher levels of damage. Nuclease S1 sensitivity in Adr-treated cells showed a single-peak, concentration-dependent relationship, in agreement with the known self-inhibitory effect exerted by high drug doses. Determination of DNA digestion could be performed in combination with other cellular parameters (e.g., protein content). Detection of drug-resistant cells in a heterogeneous population of small-cell lung carcinoma was achieved on the basis of the different sensitivity of the cells to enzymatic digestion. These results indicate that nuclease S1 may be a useful probe for studying in single cells DNA alterations induced by drugs or radiation.

Abstract
The influence of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (cis-DDP) binding to chromatin in chicken erythrocyte nuclei and the nucleosomal core particle is investigated. The cis-DDP modifications alter DNA-protein interactions associated with the higher order structure of chromatin to significantly inhibit the rate of micrococcal nuclease digestion and alter the digestion profile. However, cis-DDP modification of core particle has little effect on the digestion rate and the relative distribution of DNA fragments produced by microccocal nuclease digestion. Analysis of the monomer DNA fragments derived from the digestion of modified nuclei suggests that cis-DDP binding does not significantly disrupt the DNA structure within the core particle, with its major influence being on the internucleosomal DNA. Together these findings suggest that cis-DDP may preferentially bind to the internucleosomal region and/or that the formation of the intrastrand cross-link involving adjacent guanines exhibits a preference for the linker region. Sucrose gradient profiles of the modified nucleoprotein complexes further confirm that the digestion profile for micrococcal nuclease is altered by cis-DDP binding and that the greatest changes occur at the initial stages of digestion. The covalent cross-links within bulk chromatin fix a sub-population of subnucleosomal and nucleosomal products, which are released only after reversal by NaCN treatment. Coupled with our previous findings, it appears that this cis-DDP mediated cross-linking network is primarily associated with protein-protein crosslinks of the low mobility group (LMG) proteins.

Abstract
Chromatin and nucleosomal core particles were modified with cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) and the nucleoprotein complexes then digested with DNase I. Limited digestion of the modified chromatin containing cis-Pt(NH3)2Cl2 mediated cross-links involving the non-histone chromosomal proteins (Scovell et al. (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 142, 826-835) does not release the low mobility proteins and excises only about 20% of the high mobility proteins 1, 2, and E. This supports previous findings that the low mobility proteins are involved primarily in protein-protein cross-links. In addition, the covalent cross-links between DNA and the high mobility proteins 1, 2, and E are relatively inaccessible to DNase I, in marked contrast to their accessibility to micrococcal nuclease. Furthermore, gels of the denatured DNA fragments obtained from digestion of both modified chromatin and nucleosomal core particle reveal virtually no difference in the 10n base repeat pattern, indicating no detectable change in the DNA-protein interactions upon DNA modification. This suggests that the predominant modification produced on core particle DNA, whether contained within higher order chromatin structure or in the core particle itself, is one which does not significantly alter the helical twist of the DNA within these nucleoprotein assemblies.

Abstract
The antitumor agent cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP) reacts covalently with DNA and disrupts its secondary structure. Damaged DNA, but not native DNA, is readily digested by S1 nuclease, an endonuclease specific for single stranded polynucleotides. We have measured S1 nuclease digestion of platinated DNA by the release of platinum-DNA adducts and compared it with digestion of unplatinated DNA. The rate of hydrolysis of damaged substrate from platinum-DNA complexes was less than the overall rate of digestion of nucleotides. Similar results were observed for platinum-DNA complexes in native, denatured or renatured conformations. The hydrolysis of denatured platinum-DNA complexes, rb = 0.075 platinum per nucleotide, obeyed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Taking into account the level of DNA damage, Vm, for the release of platinated adducts was 0.6 times smaller than for digestion of unplatinated DNA. Km values and competition experiments indicated that the enzyme bound equally well to platinated and unplatinated substrates. Similar results were obtained for denatured DNA complexes with trans-DDP while [PtCl(diethylenetriamine)]Cl had no influence on nuclease digestion. These results suggest that bifunctional platinum-DNA lesions have contradictory effects on the hydrolysis of double stranded DNA by S1 nuclease. On one hand they create nuclease sensitive substrate by disrupting DNA secondary structure. On the other, they inhibit digestion of the damaged strand by increasing the activation energy for hydrolysis.

Abstract
Plasmid pBR322 was modified in vitro with the antitumor compound cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP) or the isomeric trans-DDP. The numbers of platinum adducts were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. DNA-repair-proficient and various DNA-repair-deficient (uvrB, uvrD, recB and recA) strains of Escherichia coli were transformed by the damaged plasmids and the ratios of the transformation frequencies of cells by damaged plasmids relative to those by untreated plasmids were determined. Results of transformation assays indicated that the uvrB gene function was essential for repair of plasmid DNA damaged with cis-DDP. A functional recA gene product seemed to be of minor importance for repair of plasmids damaged with cis-DDP. trans-DDP had a different effect on plasmid DNA. trans-DDP-modified DNA was better able to transform cells than cis-DDP-modified DNA, and the DNAs appeared to be repaired differently. Prior induction of SOS functions increased the survival of plasmids treated with cis-DDP in wild-type and uvrD mutants, but did not increase the survival of plasmids damaged with trans-DDP in these strains. In in vitro repair experiments, plasmid DNA modified with cis-DDP was more readily incised by the UVRABC excinuclease than that modified with trans-DDP.

Abstract
We report the use of anti-nucleoside antibodies to probe for local denaturation of calf thymus DNA upon binding of the antitumor drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), cis-DDP, and the biologically inactive analogues trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), trans-DDP, and chloro(diethylenetriamine)platinum(II) chloride, [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl. These antibodies specifically recognize each of the four DNA nucleosides. They bind well to denatured DNA, but not to native DNA in which the bases are less accessible owing to Watson-Crick duplex structure. At relatively high levels of modification (D/N approximately 0.1), cis-DDP causes significant disruption of DNA base pairing as reflected by the increased binding of anti-cytidine, anti-adenosine, and anti-thymidine antibodies. At lower levels of platinum adduct formation, however, all four anti-nucleoside antibodies bind more to DNA modified with trans-DDP. This result indicates that adducts formed by trans-DDP disrupt the DNA structure to a greater extent than those formed by cis-DDP at low D/N ratios. Modification of DNA by the monofunctional complex [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl does not affect its recognition by anti-nucleoside antibodies, demonstrating that base pair disruption is a consequence of bifunctional binding. The relative anti-nucleoside antibody recognition of cis-DDP-modified DNA is anti-cytosine greater than anti-adenosine approximately anti-thymidine much greater than anti-guanosine, consistent with the major adduct being an intrastrand d(GpG) cross-link. These results reveal that base pair disruption in a naturally occurring DNA modified by either cis-DDP or trans-DDP is sufficient to be detected by protein (antibody) binding. The relevance of these findings to current ideas about the molecular mechanism of action of cis-DDP is discussed.

Abstract
Antibodies elicited against the haptens cis-Pt(NH3)2dGuodGMP and its ribo-analog, both covalently coupled to bovine serum albumin, recognize adducts of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP) in DNA. Antibody-binding to cis-DDP-DNA strongly depends on the accessibility of the adducts to the antibodies. In double-stranded cis-DDP-DNA with low Pt: nucleotide ratios (rb's), this accessibility is enhanced by unwinding of the cis-DDP-DNA, e.g. by heat-denaturation. An unwinding effect is also induced by the cis-DDP treatment itself. A260nm readings of cis-DDP-DNA samples indicate an increased denaturation of the DNA at increasing Pt-contents. The data obtained after heat-denaturation of the same samples show a growing capability to renaturation when the rb-values increase from 0 to 0.04; at 0.04 less than rb less than 0.18 the renaturation effect gradually disappears. In the competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), the cis-DDP-adducts in heat-denatured DNA are detected in the pmol range; in DNA-digests, however, they are recognized in fmol amounts. For the individual Pt-containing (oligo)nucleotides the amounts causing 50% inhibition in the ELISA were established for the two anti-sera; they were 13.3 +/- 3.8 (fmol +/- S.D.) and 5.4 +/- 1.8 for cis-Pt(NH3)2d(GMP)2; 15.5 +/- 5.4 and 4.0 +/- 1.5 for cis-Pt(NH3)2d(pGpG); (2.6 +/- 1.1) X 10(3) and (2.0 +/- 1.0) X 10(3) for cis-Pt(NH3)2d(pApG); (5.6 +/- 1.9) X 10(3) and (2.9 +/- 0.4) X 10(3) for Pt(NH3)3dGMP. Pt-adducts in a trans-DDP-DNA digest are recognized in pmol amounts and dGMP in nmol quantitatives. Finally, the usefulness of these antibodies for the detection and quantitation of individual cis-DDP-adducts in cis-DDP-DNA digests was demonstrated.

Abstract
Mutants of Escherichia coli, which are blocked in excision repair (uvrA6, uvrB5, or uvrC34) are exceptionally sensitive to the antitumor drug cis-Pt(II)(NH3)2Cl2 (cis-DDP) but not the trans isomer. Plasmid DNA, damaged by either the cis or trans compound and treated with the UVRABC excision nuclease was cut as shown by conversion of supercoiled DNA to relaxed forms. All three protein products of the uvrA, uvrB, and uvrC genes were required for incision. End-labeled fragments damaged with cis-DDP and reacted with the UVRABC nuclease were cut at the 8th phosphodiester bond 5' and at the 4th phosphodiester bond 3' to adjacent GG's. DNA treated with trans-DDP was not cut appreciably at adjacent GG's by the repair enzyme as subsequent analysis of reaction products after enzyme digestion gave a pattern similar to those obtained with control untreated fragments. The results indicate that the UVRABC nuclease may promote cell survival by the removal of adjacent GG's which are crosslinked by cis-Pt(II)(NH3)2Cl2.
