Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer (BC) is the leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. The nudix hydrolase 17 (NUDT17) may play notable roles in cancer growth and metastasis. In this study, we explored the importance of NUDT17 gene polymorphism in patients with BC. METHODS In our study, 563 BC patients and 552 healthy controls participated. We used logistic regression analysis to calculate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), and multifactor dimension reduction (MDR) analysis of SNP-SNP interactions. Finally, UALCAN and THPA databases were used for bioinformatics analysis. RESULTS The rs9286836 G allele was associated with a decreased the BC risk (p = 0.022), and the carriers of rs2004659 G allele had a 32% decreased risk of BC than individuals with allele A (p = 0.004). In the four genetic models, rs9286836 and rs2004659 reduced the risk of BC. Additionally, we found that the NUDT17 SNPs were associated with BC risk under age, tumor size, and clinical stage stratification. The MDR analysis showed that the five-locus interaction model was the best in the multi-locus model. CONCLUSION Our study found that NUDT17 single nucleotide polymorphisms are associated with BC susceptibility in Chinese Han population.

Abstract
Oxidative lesions, such as 8-oxo-dG and 8-oxo-dA, are continuously generated from exposure to reactive oxygen species. While 8-oxo-dG has been extensively studied, 8-oxo-dA has not received as much attention until recently. Herein, we report the synthesis of duplex DNAs incorporating dA, 8-oxo-dA, 7-deaza-dA, 8-Br-dA, and 8-Br-7-deaza-dA, which have different substitutions at 7- and 8-position, for the investigation into the implications of N7-hydrogen and C8-keto on the base pairing preference, mutagenic potential and repair of 8-oxo-dA. Base pairing study suggested that the polar N7-hydrogen and C8-keto of 8-oxo-dA, rather than the syn-preference, might be essential for 8-oxo-dA to form a stable base pair with dG. Insertion and extension studies using KF-exo- and human DNA polymerase β indicated that the efficient dGTP insertion opposite 8-oxo-dA and extension past 8-oxo-dA:dG are contingent upon not only the stable base pair with dG, but also the flexibility of the active site in polymerase. The N7-hydrogen in 8-oxo-dA or C7-hydrogen in 7-deaza-dA and 8-Br-7-deaza-dA was suggested to be important for the recognition by hOGG1, although the excision efficiencies of 7-deaza-dA and 8-Br-7-deaza-dA were much lower than 8-oxo-dA. This study provides an insight into the structure-function relationship of 8-oxo-dA by nucleotide analogues.

Abstract
The MTH1 (NUDT1) gene, because it is frequently upregulated in many types of human cancers, has been considered a general marker of carcinogenesis for over two decades. The MTH1 protein hydrolyzes the oxidized mutagenic DNA precursor, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-oxo-dGTP), to the corresponding 5'-monophosphate and inorganic pyrophosphate. This prevents its incorporation into DNA by DNA polymerases and protects cells from the accumulation of 8-oxo-dGTP-induced point mutations. Elevated MTH1 mRNA and protein in many types of human cancer indicate a worse prognosis. However, the enzymatic activity of MTH1 has remained largely uninvestigated in this context. Therefore, we have set out to determine the specific 8-oxo-dGTPase activity of MTH1 in 57 pairs of human colorectal cancers (CRC) and adjacent cancer-free tissues (CFCF). The goal was to ascertain the potential for measuring this enzymatic activity as a way to differentiate cancerous from non-cancerous specimens of the intestine, as well as defining its capabilities as a prognostic value for disease-free survival. We found that 79% of CRC tumors exhibited a higher MTH1 activity than did CFCF, with a significant 1.6-fold increase in overall median value (p < 1E-6). The 8-oxo-dGTPase in both tissues was proportional to the corresponding levels of MTH1 protein, as assayed by Western blotting. Activity higher than the ROC-optimized threshold (AUC = 0.71) indicated cancerous tissue, with a 54% sensitivity and an 83% specificity. Postoperative fate followed for up to 100 months showed that higher 8-oxo-dGTPase, in either the CFCF or the CRC tumor, clearly lowered the probability of a relapse-free survival, although borderline statistical significance (p < 0.05) was crossed only for the CFCF.

Abstract
MTH1 is an enzyme that hydrolyzes 8-oxo-dGTP, which is an oxidatively damaged nucleobase, into 8-oxo-dGMP in nucleotide pools to prevent its mis-incorporation into genomic DNA. Selective and potent MTH1-binding molecules have potential as biological tools and drug candidates. We recently developed 8-halogenated 7-deaza-dGTP as an 8-oxo-dGTP mimic and found that it was not hydrolyzed, but inhibited enzyme activity. To further increase MTH1 binding, we herein designed and synthesized 7,8-dihalogenated 7-deaza-dG derivatives. We successfully synthesized multiple derivatives, including substituted nucleosides and nucleotides, using 7-deaza-dG as a starting material. Evaluations of the inhibition of MTH1 activity revealed the strong inhibitory effects on enzyme activity of the 7,8-dihalogenated 7-deaza-dG derivatives, particularly 7,8-dibromo 7-daza-dGTP. Based on the results obtained on kinetic parameters and from computational docking simulating studies, these nucleotide analogs interacted with the active site of MTH1 and competitively inhibited the substrate 8-oxodGTP. Therefore, novel properties of repair enzymes in cells may be elucidated using new compounds.

Abstract
Since accelerated metabolism produces much higher levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cancer cells compared to ROS levels found in normal cells, human MutT homolog 1 (MTH1), which sanitizes oxidized nucleotide pools, was recently demonstrated to be crucial for the survival of cancer cells, but not required for the proliferation of normal cells. Therefore, dozens of MTH1 inhibitors have been developed with the aim of suppressing cancer growth by accumulating oxidative damage in cancer cells. While several inhibitors were indeed confirmed to be effective, some inhibitors failed to kill cancer cells, complicating MTH1 as a viable target for cancer eradication. In this review, we summarize the current status of developing MTH1 inhibitors as drug candidates, classify the MTH1 inhibitors based on their structures, and offer our perspectives toward the therapeutic potential against cancer through the targeting of MTH1.

Free Radic Biol Med 2020; 148:1-21.

Abstract
We measured the specific 8-oxo-dGTPase activity profile of the NCI-60 panel of malignant cell lines, and MTH1 protein levels in a subset of 16 lines. Their 8-oxo-dGTPase activity was compared to twelve publicly accessible MTH1 mRNA expression data bases and their cross-consistency was analyzed. 8-oxo-dGTPase and MTH1 protein levels in these cell lines are generally, but not always, mainly determined by MTH1 mRNA expression levels. The aneuploidy number of MTH1 gene copies only slightly affects its mRNA expression levels. By using the data mining platforms Compare and CellMiner, our 8-oxo-dGTPase profile was compared to five global gene expression datasets to identify genes whose expression levels are directly or inversely associated with 8-oxo-dGTPase. We analyzed effects of SNP within MTH1 on MTH1 mRNA level and enzyme activity. Similar association analysis was performed for five microRNA expression datasets. We identified several proteins and microRNA which might be involved in the regulation of MTH1 expression and we discuss potential mechanisms. Comparison of chemical and natural products sensitivities of the NCI-60 panel suggests seven compounds which are directly or inversely associated with 8-oxo-dGTPase. We provide an integrated picture of MTH1 expression combined from eleven consistent MTH1 mRNA and our 8-oxo-dGTPase activity NCI-60 profiles.

Abstract
The nudix hydroxylase (NUDT) family of genes may have notable roles in cancer growth and metastasis. The present study aimed to determine the prognostic ability of NUDT genes in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Data from 509 patients with ccRCC was obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and 192 patient samples from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (FUSCC) were analyzed in the present study. The expression profile of NUDT gene family members in the TCGA cohort was obtained from the TCGA RNA sequencing database. Pathological characteristics, including age, sex, tumor size, tumor grade, stage, laterality and overall survival were collected. Cox proportional hazards regression model and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were performed to assess the associations between pathological characteristics and expression levels of NUDT family genes. NUDT family genes that exhibited associations with overall survival (OS) were further validated in the FUSCC cohort. In the TCGA cohort, Cox proportional hazards analysis found that NUDT5 [hazards ratio (HR)=1.676; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.097-2.559] and NUDT17 (HR=1.375; 95% CI, 1.092-1.732) were predictive of ccRCC prognosis. Further analysis revealed that low NUDT5 (P<0.0001) and NUDT17 (P<0.0001) expression were associated with poorer OS rates in the TCGA cohort. In the FUSCC cohort, low NUDT5 expression was also associated with poor OS rates (P=0.0116), and tumor grade was a factor that influenced the expression level of NUDT5 (P=0.016).

Abstract
MTH1 (NUDT1) is an oncologic target involved in the prevention of DNA damage. We investigate the way MTH1 recognises its substrates and present substrate-bound structures of MTH1 for 8-oxo-dGTP and 8-oxo-rATP as examples of novel strong and weak binding substrate motifs. Investigation of a small set of purine-like fragments using 2D NMR resulted in identification of a fragment with weak potency. The protein-ligand X-Ray structure of this fragment provides insight into the role of water molecules in substrate selectivity. Wider fragment screening by NMR resulted in three new protein structures exhibiting alternative binding configurations to the key Asp-Asp recognition element of the protein. These inhibitor binding modes demonstrate that MTH1 employs an intricate yet promiscuous mechanism of substrate anchoring through its Asp-Asp pharmacophore. The structures suggest that water-mediated interactions convey selectivity towards oxidized substrates over their non-oxidised counterparts, in particular by stabilization of a water molecule in a hydrophobic environment through hydrogen bonding. These findings may be useful in the design of inhibitors of MTH1.

Abstract
The bacterial repair enzyme MutT hydrolyzes the damaged nucleotide OdGTP (the 5'-triphosphate derivative of 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine; OdG), which is a known mutagen and has been linked to antibacterial action. Previous work has indicated important roles for the C8-oxygen, N7-hydrogen, and C2-exocyclic amine during OdGTP recognition by MutT. In order to gain a more nuanced understanding of the contribution of these three sites to the overall activity of MutT, we determined the reaction parameters for dGTP, OdGTP, and nine of their analogues using steady state kinetics. Our results indicate that overall high reaction efficiencies can be achieved despite altering any one of these sites. However, altering two or more sites leads to a significant decrease in efficiency. The data also suggest that, similar to another bacterial OdG repair enzyme, MutM, a specific carbonyl in the enzyme can not only promote activity by forming an active site hydrogen bond with the N7-hydrogen of OdGTP, but can also hinder activity through electrostatic repulsion with the N7-lone pair of dGTP.

Abstract
hMTH1 (8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanine triphosphatase) hydrolyzes oxidized nucleoside triphosphates; its presence is non-essential for survival of normal cells but is required for survival of cancer cells. In this study, 8-halogenated-7-deaza-2'-deoxyguanosine triphosphate (8-halogenated-7-deazadGTP) derivatives were synthesized. Interestingly, these triphosphates were poor substrates for hMTH1, but exhibited strong competitive inhibition against hMTH1 at nanomolar levels. This inhibitory effect is attributed to slower rate of hydrolysis, possibly arising from enzyme structural changes, specifically different stacking interactions with 8-halogenated-7-deazadGTP. This is the first example of using nucleotide derivatives to inhibit hMTH1, thus demonstrating their potential as antitumor agents.

We review scientific findings that over the last 10-15 years have allowed the identification of several intracellular nucleotide-degrading enzymes as cancer drug targets, and discuss further potential therapeutic applications for Rcl, SAMHD1, MTH1 and cN-II. We believe that enzymes involved in nucleotide metabolism represent potent alternatives to conventional cancer chemotherapy targets.

Abstract
MTH1 hydrolyzes oxidized nucleotide triphosphates, thereby preventing them from being incorporated into DNA. We here present the structures of human MTH1 (1.9Å) and its complex with the product 8-oxo-dGMP (1.8Å). Unexpectedly MTH1 binds the nucleotide in the anti conformation with no direct interaction between the 8-oxo group and the protein. We suggest that the specificity depends on the stabilization of an enol tautomer of the 8-oxo form of dGTP. The binding of the product induces no major structural changes. The structures reveal the mode of nucleotide binding in MTH1 and provide the structural basis for inhibitor design.

Abstract
The epigenetic control of transcription requires the selective recognition of methylated CpG dinucleotides by methylation-sensitive sequence-specific DNA binding proteins. In order to probe the mechanism of selective interaction of the methyl-binding protein with methylated DNA, we have prepared a series of oligonucleotides containing modified purines and pyrimidines at the recognition site, and we have examined the binding of these oligonucleotides to the methyl-binding domain (MBD) of the methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2). Our results suggest that pyrimidine 5-substituents similar in size to a methyl group facilitate protein binding; however, binding affinity does not correlate with the hydrophobicity of the substituent, and neither the 4-amino group of 5-methylcytosine (mC) nor Watson-Crick base pair geometry is essential for MBD binding. However, 5-substituted uracil analogues in one strand do not direct human DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) methylation of the opposing strand, as does mC. Important recognition elements do include the guanine O6 and N7 atoms present in the major groove. Unexpectedly, removal of the guanine 2-amino group from the minor groove substantially enhances MBD binding, likely resulting from DNA bending at the substitution site. The enhanced binding of the MBD to oligonucleotides containing several cytosine analogues observed here is better explained by a DNA-protein interface mediated by structured water as opposed to hydrophobic interactions.

Abstract
Abstract Mammalian MTH1 protein is an antimutagenic (2'-deoxy)ribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase that prevents the incorporation of oxidatively modified nucleotides into nucleic acids. It decomposes most specifically the miscoding products of oxidative damage to purine nucleic acid precursors (e.g. 8-oxo-dGTP, 2-oxo-dATP, 2-oxo-ATP, 8-oxo-GTP) that may cause point mutations or transcription errors when incorporated into DNA and RNA, respectively. The increased expression of MTH1 mRNA and MTH1 protein was previously proposed as a molecular marker of oxidative stress. Therefore, we hypothesized that increased 8-oxo-dGTPase activity of MTH1 protein in mouse organs could serve as a dose-dependent marker of exposure to ionizing radiation, which is known to induce oxidative stress. To test our hypothesis, we measured 8-oxo-dGTPase activity in six organs of male BL6 mice after exposure to 0, 10, 25 and 50 cGy and 1 Gy of (137)Cs gamma radiation given as a single whole-body dose (1 Gy/min). The mice were killed 4, 8 and 24 h after irradiation. A statistically significant induction of 8-oxo-dGTPase was found in brains, testes and kidneys but not in lungs, hearts or livers. Brains, which demonstrated the highest (4.3-fold) increase of 8-oxo-dGTPase activity, were shown to express approximately 50% higher levels of MTH1 protein. However, due to the lack of a simple positive correlation between the dose and the observed 8-oxo-dGTPase activity in brain, testes and kidneys, we conclude that measurements of 8-oxo-dGTPase activity in these organs may serve as a rough indicator rather than a quantifiable marker of radiation-induced oxidative stress.

Abstract
The human NUDT5 protein catalyzes the hydrolysis of 8-hydroxy-dGDP. To examine its substrate specificity, four oxidized deoxyribonucleotides (2-hydroxy-dADP, 8-hydroxy-dADP, 5-formyl-dUDP, and 5-hydroxy-dCDP) were incubated with the NUDT5 protein. Interestingly, all of the nucleotides, except for 5-hydroxy-dCDP, were hydrolyzed with various efficiencies. The kinetic parameters indicated that 8-hydroxy-dADP was hydrolyzed as efficiently as 8-hydroxy-dGDP. The hydrolyzing activities for their triphosphate counterparts were quite weak. These results suggest that the NUDT5 protein eliminates various oxidized deoxyribonucleoside diphosphates from the nucleotide pool and prevents their toxic effects.

Abstract
A substantial fraction of mutations that arise in the cell comes from oxidative damage to DNA bases. Oxidation of purine bases at the 8-position, yielding 8-oxo-G and 8-oxo-A, results in conformational changes (from anti to syn) that cause miscoding during DNA replication. Here we describe the synthesis and biophysical and biochemical properties of low-polarity shape mimics of 8-oxopurines, and we report that these new analogues exhibit remarkable mimicry of the mutagenic properties of the natural damaged bases. A 2-chloro-4-fluoroindole nucleoside (1) was designed as an isosteric analogue of 8-oxo-dG, and a 2-chloro-4-methylbenzimidazole nucleoside (2) as a mimic of 8-oxo-dA. The nucleosides were prepared by reaction of the parent heterocycles with Hoffer's chlorodeoxyribose derivative. Structural studies of the free nucleosides 1 and 2 revealed that both bases are oriented syn, thus mimicking the conformation of the oxopurine nucleosides. Suitably protected phosphoramidite derivatives were prepared for incorporation into synthetic DNAs, to be used as probes of DNA damage responses, and 5'-triphosphate derivatives (3 and 4) were synthesized as analogues of damaged nucleotides in the cellular nucleotide pool. Base pairing studies in 12-mer duplexes showed that 1 and 2 have low affinity for polar pairing partners, consistent with previous nonpolar DNA base analogues. However, both compounds pair with small but significant selectivity for purine partners, consistent with the idea that the syn purine geometry leads to pyrimidine-like shapes. Steady-state kinetics studies of 1 and 2 were carried out with the Klenow fragment of Escherichia coli DNA Pol I (exo-) in single-nucleotide insertions. In the DNA template, the analogues successfully mimicked the mutagenic behavior of oxopurines, with 1 being paired selectively with adenine and 2 pairing selectively with guanine. The compounds showed similar mutagenic behavior as nucleoside triphosphate analogues, being preferentially inserted opposite mutagenic purine partners. The results suggest that much of the mutagenicity of oxopurines arises from their shapes in the syn conformation rather than from electrostatic and hydrogen-bonding effects. The new analogues are expected to be generally useful as mechanistic probes of cellular responses to DNA damage.

Abstract
The MTH1 protein catalyzes hydrolysis of oxidatively damaged purine nucleotides including 8-hydroxy-dGTP to the monophosphates. The MTH1 protein seems to act as an important defense system against mutagenesis, carcinogenesis, and cell death induced by oxidized purine nucleotides. We previously reported that the functional groups at the 2- and 6-positions of the purine ring affect the recognition by the human MTH1 protein. 8-Hydroxy-dGTP and 8-hydroxy-dATP are substrates of MTH1, and both have the "7,8-dihydro-8-oxo structure." In this study, three nucleotide analogs containing this motif were examined. A synthetic purine analog containing the 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo structure and the 2-amino function (dJTP) was hydrolyzed to the monophosphate with high efficiency by MTH1. On the other hand, two analogs that lack the two-ring system of their bases [formamidopyrimidine-dGTP (FAPY-dGTP) and 2-OH-dYTP] were poor substrates. FAPY-dGTP is a mixture of conformers and was hydrolyzed more than ten-fold less efficiently than 8-hydroxy-dGTP. These results clarify the effects of the 2-amino group and the two-ring system of the purine base on the recognition by the human MTH1 protein.

Abstract
Cellular metabolism constantly generates by-products that are wasteful or even harmful. Such compounds are excreted from the cell or are removed through hydrolysis to normal cellular metabolites by various 'house-cleaning' enzymes. Some of the most important contaminants are non-canonical nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) whose incorporation into the nascent DNA leads to increased mutagenesis and DNA damage. Enzymes intercepting abnormal NTPs from incorporation by DNA polymerases work in parallel with DNA repair enzymes that remove lesions produced by modified nucleotides. House-cleaning NTP pyrophosphatases targeting non-canonical NTPs belong to at least four structural superfamilies: MutT-related (Nudix) hydrolases, dUTPase, ITPase (Maf/HAM1) and all-alpha NTP pyrophosphatases (MazG). These enzymes have high affinity (Km's in the micromolar range) for their natural substrates (8-oxo-dGTP, dUTP, dITP, 2-oxo-dATP), which allows them to select these substrates from a mixture containing a approximately 1000-fold excess of canonical NTPs. To date, many house-cleaning NTPases have been identified only on the basis of their side activity towards canonical NTPs and NDP derivatives. Integration of growing structural and biochemical data on these superfamilies suggests that their new family members cleanse the nucleotide pool of the products of oxidative damage and inappropriate methylation. House-cleaning enzymes, such as 6-phosphogluconolactonase, are also part of normal intermediary metabolism. Genomic data suggest that house-cleaning systems are more abundant than previously thought and include numerous analogous enzymes with overlapping functions. We discuss the structural diversity of these enzymes, their phylogenetic distribution, substrate specificity and the problem of identifying their true substrates.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation is associated with a variety of human diseases, including cancer, with one possible mechanistic link involving over-production of nitric oxide (NO*) by activated macrophages. Subsequent reaction of NO* with superoxide in the presence of carbon dioxide yields nitrosoperoxycarbonate (ONOOCO2-), a strong oxidant that reacts with guanine in DNA to form a variety of oxidation and nitration products, such 2'-deoxy-8-oxoguanosine. Alternatively, the reaction of NO and O2 leads to the formation of N2O3, a nitrosating agent that causes nucleobase deamination to form 2'-deoxyxanthosine (dX) and 2'-deoxyoxanosine (dO) from dG; 2'-deoxyinosine (dI) from dA; and 2'-deoxyuridine (dU) from dC, in addition to abasic sites and dG-dG cross-links. The presence of both ONOOCO2- and N2O3 at sites of inflammation necessitates definition of the relative roles of oxidative and nitrosative DNA damage in the genetic toxicology of inflammation. To this end, we sought to develop enzymatic probes for oxidative and nitrosative DNA lesions as a means to quantify the two types of DNA damage in in vitro DNA damage assays, such as the comet assay and as a means to differentially map the lesions in genomic DNA by the technique of ligation-mediated PCR. On the basis of fragmentary reports in the literature, we first systematically assessed the recognition of dX and dI by a battery of DNA repair enzymes. Members of the alkylpurine DNA glycosylase family (E. coli AlkA, murine Aag, and human MPG) all showed repair activity with dX (k(cat)/Km 29 x 10(-6), 21 x 10(-6), and 7.8 x 10(-6) nM(-1) min(-1), respectively), though the activity was considerably lower than that of EndoV (8 x 10(-3) nM(-1) min(-1)). Based on these results and other published studies, we focused the development of enzymatic probes on two groups of enzymes, one with activity against oxidative damage (formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg); endonuclease III (EndoIII)) and the other with activity against nucleobase deamination products (uracil DNA glycosylase (Udg); AlkA). These combinations were assessed for recognition of DNA damage caused by N2O3 (generated with a NO*/O2 delivery system) or ONOOCO2- using a plasmid nicking assay and by LC-MS analysis. Collectively, the results indicate that a combination of AlkA and Udg react selectively with DNA containing only nitrosative damage, while Fpg and EndoIII react selectively with DNA containing oxidative base lesions caused by ONOOCO2-. The results suggest that these enzyme combinations can be used as probes to define the location and quantity of the oxidative and nitrosative DNA lesions produced by chemical mediators of inflammation in systems, such as the comet assay, ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction, and other assays of DNA damage and repair.

Abstract
To evaluate the in vivo mutagenicities of damaged DNA precursors (deoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphates) produced by exposure to nitric oxide (NO) and ionizing radiation, five damaged deoxyribonucleotides (deoxyxanthosine triphosphate, deoxyoxanosine triphosphate, dITP, dUTP, and 8-hydroxy-dATP) were introduced into competent Escherichia coli cells. Their mutagenic potentials were assayed using the chromosomal rpoB gene as a mutagenesis target. In contrast to 8-hydroxy-dGTP and 2-hydroxy-dATP, which were examined in an earlier study, none of these damaged deoxyribonucleotides significantly increased the rpoB mutant frequency. These results suggest that these five damaged deoxyribonucleotides are weakly mutagenic in vivo if at all. Thus their contributions to mutations induced by NO and ionizing radiation may be small.

Abstract
To determine whether the Orf17 (NtpA) protein of Escherichia coli, a MutT-type enzyme, functions as a hydrolyzing enzyme for a damaged deoxyribonucleotide, we purified the recombinant Orf17 protein and incubated it with oxidized deoxyribonucleotides. Of the deoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphates tested, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate was hydrolyzed by this protein. Unexpectedly, the Orf17 protein degraded 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyadenosine 5'-diphosphate 2.3-fold more efficiently than the corresponding triphosphate. Thus, this protein is the first MutT-type enzyme that hydrolyzes both the triphosphate and diphosphate derivatives of a deoxyribonucleoside, with similar efficiencies. These results suggest that the Orf17 protein may be involved in the hydrolysis of oxidized dATP and dADP.

Abstract
Replication of DNA containing 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (OxodG) gives rise to G → T transversions. The syn-isomer of the lesion directs misincorporation of 2′-deoxyadenosine (dA) opposite it. We investigated the role of the 2-amino substituent on duplex thermal stability and in replication using 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2′-deoxyinosine (OxodI). Oligonucleotides containing OxodI at defined sites were chemically synthesized via solid phase synthesis. Translesion incorporation opposite OxodI was compared with 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (OxodG), 2′-deoxyinosine (dI) and 2′-deoxyguanosine (dG) in otherwise identical templates. The Klenow exo− fragment of Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I incorporated 2′-deoxyadenosine (dA) six times more frequently than 2′-deoxycytidine (dC) opposite OxodI. Preferential translesion incorporation of dA was unique to OxodI. UV-melting experiments revealed that DNA containing OxodI opposite dA is more stable than when the modified nucleotide is opposed by dC. These data suggest that while duplex DNA accommodates the 2-amino group in syn-OxodG, this substituent is thermally destabilizing and does not provide a kinetic inducement for replication by Klenow exo−.

Abstract
The Escherichia coli Orf135 protein, a MutT-type enzyme, hydrolyzes 2-hydroxy-dATP and 8-hydroxy-dGTP, in addition to dCTP and 5-methyl-dCTP, and its deficiency causes increases in both the spontaneous and H(2)O(2)-induced mutation frequencies. In this study, the Gly-36, Gly-37, Lys-38, Glu-43, Arg-51, Glu-52, Leu-53, Glu-55, and Glu-56 residues of Orf135, which are conserved in the three MutT-type proteins (Orf135, MutT, and MTH1), were substituted, and the enzymatic activity of these mutant proteins was examined. The mutant proteins with a substitution at the 36th, 37th, 52nd, and 56th amino acid residues completely lost their activity. On the other hand, the mutant proteins with a substitution at the 38th, 43rd, 51st, 53rd, and 55th residues could hydrolyze 5-methyl-dCTP. Some mutants with detectable activity for 5-methyl-dCTP did not hydrolyze dCTP. Activities for known substrates (5-methyl-dCTP, dCTP, 2-hydroxy-dATP, and 8-hydroxy-dGTP) were examined in detail with the four mutants, K38R, E43A, L53A, and E55Q. These results indicate the essential residues for the activity of the Orf135 protein.

Abstract
To counteract oxidative damage in nucleic acids, mammalian cells are equipped with several defense mechanisms. We herein review that MTH1, MUTYH and OGG1 play important roles in mammalian cells avoiding an accumulation of oxidative DNA damage, both in the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes, thereby suppressing carcinogenesis and cell death. MTH1 efficiently hydrolyzes oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates, such as 8-oxo-dGTP, 8-oxo-dATP and 2-hydroxy (OH)-dATP, to the monophosphates, thus avoiding the incorporation of such oxidized nucleotides into the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. OGG1 excises 8-oxoG in DNA as a DNA glycosylase and thus minimizes the accumulation of 8-oxoG in the cellular genomes. MUTYH excises adenine opposite 8-oxoG, and thus suppresses 8-oxoG-induced mutagenesis. MUTYH also possesses a 2-OH-A DNA glycosylase activity for excising 2-OH-A incorporated into the cellular genomes. Increased susceptibilities to spontaneous carcinogenesis of the liver, lung or intestine were observed in MTH1-, OGG1- and MUTYH-null mice, respectively. The increased occurrence of lung tumors in OGG1-null mice was abolished by the concomitant disruption of the Mth1 gene, indicating that an increased accumulation of 8-oxoG and/or 2-OH-A might cause cell death. Furthermore, these defense mechanisms also likely play an important role in neuroprotection.
