Abstract
8-Nitroguanine (8-nitroG) formed due to nitration of guanine base of DNA plays an important role in mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. In the present contribution, state-of-the-art quantum chemical calculations using M06-2X density functional and domain-based local pair natural orbital-coupled cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (DLPNO-CCSD(T)) methods have been carried out to investigate the mechanism of reaction of •OH radical with 8-nitroG leading to the formation of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) (one of the most mutagenic and carcinogenic derivatives of guanine) in gas phase and aqueous media. Calculations of barrier energies and rate constants involved in the addition reactions of •OH radical at different sites of 8-nitroguanine show that C8 and C2 sites are the most and least reactive sites, respectively. Relative stability and Boltzmann populations of adducts show that the adduct formed at the C8 site occurs predominantly in equilibrium. Our calculations reveal that 8-nitroG is very reactive toward •OH radical and is converted readily into 8-oxoG when attacked by •OH radicals, in agreement with available experimental observations.

Abstract
The magnitude and nature of lesion-induced energetic perturbations empirically correlate with mutagenicity/cytotoxicity profiles and can be predictive of lesion outcomes during polymerase-mediated replication in vitro. In this study, we assess the sequence and counterbase-dependent energetic impact of the Thymine glycol (Tg) lesion on a family of deoxyoligonucleotide duplexes. Tg damage arises from thymine and methyl-cytosine exposure to oxidizing agents or radiation-generated free-radicals. The Tg lesion blocks polymerase-mediated DNA replication in vitro and the unrepaired site elicits cytotoxic lethal consequences in vivo. Our combined calorimetric and spectroscopic characterization correlates Tg -induced energetic perturbations with biological and structural properties. Specifically, we incorporate a 5R-Tg isomer centered within the tridecanucleotide sequence 5'-GCGTACXCATGCG-3' (X = Tg or T) which is hybridized with the corresponding complementary sequence 5'-CGCATGNGTACGC-3' (N = A, G, T, C) to generate families of Tg -damaged (Tg ·N) and lesion-free (T·N) duplexes. We demonstrate that the magnitude and nature of the Tg destabilizing impact is dependent on counterbase identity (i.e., A ∼ G < T < C). The observation that a Tg lesion is less destabilizing when positioned opposite purines suggests that favorable counterbase stacking interactions may partially compensate lesion-induced perturbations. Moreover, the destabilizing energies of Tg ·N duplexes parallel their respective lesion-free T·N mismatch counterparts (i.e., G < T < C). Elucidation of Tg-induced destabilization relative to the corresponding undamaged mismatch energetics allows resolution of lesion-specific and sequence-dependent impacts. The Tg-induced energetic perturbations are consistent with its replication blocking properties and may serve as differential recognition elements for discrimination by the cellular repair machinery.

Abstract
Oxidation of guanine by reactive oxygen species and high valent metals produces damaging DNA base lesions like 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG). 8-oxoG can be further oxidized to form the spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) lesion, which is even more mutagenic. DNA polymerases preferentially incorporate purines opposite the Sp lesion, and DNA glycosylases excise the Sp lesion from the duplex, although the rate of repair is different for the two Sp diastereomers. To further understand the biological processing of the Sp lesion, differential scanning calorimetry studies were performed on a series of 15-mer DNA duplexes. The thermal and thermodynamic stabilities of each of the Sp diastereomers paired to the four standard DNA bases were investigated. It was found that, regardless of the base-pairing partner, the Sp lesion was always highly destabilizing in terms of DNA melting temperature, enthalpic stability, and overall duplex free energy. We found no significant differences between the two Sp diastereomers, but changing the base-pairing partner of the Sp lesion produced slight differences in stability. Specifically, duplexes with Sp:C pairings were always the most destabilized, whereas pairing the Sp lesion with a purine base modestly increased stability. Overall, these results suggest that, although the stability of the Sp diastereomers cannot explain the differences in the rates of repair by DNA glycosylases, the most stable base-pairing partners do correspond with the nucleotide preference of DNA polymerases.

Abstract
Guanine (G) is a target for oxidation by reactive oxygen species in DNA, RNA, and the nucleotide pool. Damage to DNA yields products with alternative properties toward DNA processing enzymes compared to those of the parent nucleotide. A new lesion, 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (2Ih), bearing a stereocenter in the base was recently identified from the oxidation of G. DNA polymerase and base excision repair processing of this new lesion has now been evaluated. Single nucleotide insertion opposite (S)-2Ih and (R)-2Ih in the template strand catalyzed by the DNA polymerases Klenow fragment exo(-), DPO4, and Hemo KlenTaq demonstrates these lesions to cause point mutations. Specifically, they promote 3-fold more G·C → C·G transversion mutations than G·C → T·A, and (S)-2Ih was 2-fold more blocking for polymerase bypass than (R)-2Ih. Both diastereomer lesions were found to be substrates for the DNA glycosylases NEIL1 and Fpg, and poorly excised by endonuclease III (Nth). The activity was independent of the base pair partner. Thermal melting, CD spectroscopy, and density functional theory geometric optimization calculations were conducted to provide insight into these polymerase and DNA glycosylase studies. These results identify that formation of the 2Ih lesions in a cell would be mutagenic in the event that they were not properly repaired.

Abstract
![]()
The
first high-resolution crystal structure of spiroiminodihydantoin
(dSp1) was obtained in the context of the DNA polymerase β active
site and reveals two areas of significance. First, the structure verifies
the recently determined S configuration at the spirocyclic
carbon. Second, the distortion of the DNA duplex is similar to that
of the single-oxidation product 8-oxoguanine. For both oxidized lesions,
adaptation of the syn conformation results in similar
backbone distortions in the DNA duplex. The resulting conformation
positions the dSp1 A-ring as the base-pairing face whereas the B-ring
of dSp1 protrudes into the major groove.

Abstract
The diastereomeric spiroiminodihydantoin-2'-deoxyribonucleoside (dSp) lesions resulting from 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (dOG) oxidation have generated much attention due to their highly mutagenic nature. Their propeller-like shape leads these molecules to display mutational profiles in vivo that are stereochemically dependent. However, there exist conflicting absolute configuration assignments arising from electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and NOESY-NMR experiments; thus, providing definitive assignments of the 3D structure of these molecules is of great interest. In the present body of work, we present data inconsistent with the reported ECD assignments for the dSp diastereomers in the nucleoside context, in which the first eluting isomer from a Hypercarb HPLC column was assigned to be the S configuration, and the second was assigned the R configuration. The following experiments were conducted: (1) determination of the diastereomer ratio of dSp products upon one-electron oxidation of dG in chiral hybrid or propeller G-quadruplexes that expose the re or si face to solvent, respectively; (2) absolute configuration analysis using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy; (3) reinterpretation of the ECD experimental spectra using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) with the inclusion of 12 explicit H-bonding waters around the Sp free bases; and (4) reevaluation of calculated specific rotations for the Sp enantiomers using the hydration model in the TDDFT calculations. These new insights provide a fresh look at the absolute configuration assignments of the dSp diastereomers in which the first eluting from a Hypercarb-HPLC column is (-)-(R)-dSp and the second is (+)-(S)-dSp. These assignments now provide the basis for understanding the biological significance of the stereochemical dependence of enzymes that process this form of DNA damage.

Abstract
An important feature of the common DNA oxidation product 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG) is its susceptibility to further oxidation that produces guanidinohydantoin (Gh) and spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) lesions. In the presence of amines, G or OG oxidation produces hydantoin amine adducts. Such adducts may form in cells via interception of oxidized intermediates by protein-derived nucleophiles or naturally occurring amines that are tightly associated with DNA. Gh and Sp are known to be substrates for base excision repair (BER) glycosylases; however, large Sp-amine adducts would be expected to be more readily repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER). A series of Sp adducts differing in the size of the attached amine were synthesized to evaluate the relative processing by NER and BER. The UvrABC complex excised Gh, Sp, and the Sp-amine adducts from duplex DNA, with the greatest efficiency for the largest Sp-amine adducts. The affinity of UvrA for all of the lesion duplexes was found to be similar, whereas the efficiency of UvrB loading tracked with the efficiency of UvrABC excision. In contrast, the human BER glycosylase NEIL1 exhibited robust activity for all Sp-amine adducts irrespective of size. These studies suggest that both NER and BER pathways mediate repair of a diverse set of hydantoin lesions in cells.

Abstract
The spiroiminodihydantoins (Sp) are highly mutagenic oxidation products of guanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine in DNA. The Sp lesions have recently been detected in the liver and colon of mice infected with Helicobacter hepaticus that induces inflammation and the development of liver and colon cancers in murine model systems [Mangerich, A., et al. (2012) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 109, E1820-E1829]. The impact of Sp lesions on the thermodynamic characteristics and the effects of the diastereomeric Sp-R and Sp-S lesions on the conformational features of double-stranded 11-mer oligonucleotide duplexes have been studied by a combination of microcalorimetric methods, analysis of DNA melting curves, and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance methods. The nonplanar, propeller-like shapes of the Sp residues strongly diminish the extent of local base stacking interactions that destabilize the DNA duplexes characterized by unfavorable enthalpy contributions. Relative to that of an unmodified duplex, the thermally induced unfolding of the duplexes with centrally positioned Sp-R and Sp-S lesions into single strands is accompanied by a smaller release of cationic counterions (Δn(Na⁺) = 0.6 mol of Na⁺/mol of duplex) and water molecules (Δn(w) = 17 mol of H₂O/mol of duplex). The unfolding parameters are similar for the Sp-R and Sp-S lesions, although their orientations in the duplexes are different. The structural disturbances radiate one base pair beyond the flanking C:G pair, although Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding is maintained at all flanking base pairs. The observed relatively strong destabilization of B-form DNA by the physically small Sp lesions is expected to have a significant impact on the processing of these lesions in biological environments.

Abstract
The usefulness of modern density functional theory (DFT) methods is considered for establishing the absolute configurations of DNA lesions by comparisons of computed and experimentally measured optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Two rigid, structurally different DNA lesions (two spiroiminodihydantoin stereoisomers and four equine estrogen 4-hydoxyequilenin-DNA stereoisomeric adducts) have been investigated. In all cases, the signs and shapes of the computed ORD spectra reproduced the experimentally measured ORD spectra, although the magnitudes of the computed and experimental ORD values do not coincide exactly. The computed ECD spectra also reproduced the shapes of the experimental ECD spectra rather well, but are blue-shifted by 10-20 nm. Since the assignments of the absolute configurations of the DNA lesions studied based on computed and experimental ORD and ECD spectra are fully consistent with one another, the computational DFT method shows significant promise for determining the absolute configurations of DNA lesions. Establishing the stereochemistry of DNA lesions is highly useful for understanding their biological impact, especially when sufficient amounts of material are not available for other methods of structural characterization.

Abstract
The assignment of absolute configurations is of critical importance for understanding the biochemical processing of DNA lesions. The diastereomeric spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) lesions are oxidation products of guanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG), and the absolute configurations of the two diastereomers, Sp1 and Sp2, have been evaluated by experimental and computational optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) methods. In order to support our previous assignments by the ORD method, we calculated the electronic circular dichroism spectra (ECD) of the Sp stereoisomers. Comparison of the experimentally measured and computed ECD spectra indicates that Sp1 has (-)-S absolute configuration, while Sp2 has (+)-R absolute configuration. Thus, the S and R assignments, based on the ECD spectra of Sp1 and Sp2, are consistent with our previous assignments of absolute configurations. To further test the validity of this approach, we performed a proof-of-principle computation of the ECD and ORD of the R and S enantiomers of allantoin (similar in chemical composition to Sp) of known absolute configurations. The calculations provide the correct assignment of the absolute configurations of the allantoin enantiomers, indicating that the computational TDDFT approach is robust for identifying the absolute configurations of allantoins and probably the Sp stereoisomers, as has been shown previously for other organic molecules.

Abstract
We investigated the incorporation of oxidatively modified guanine residues in DNA using three DNA polymerases, Escherichia coli Kf exo+, Kf exo-, and Taq DNA polymerase. We prepared nucleoside 5'-triphosphates with modified bases (dN (ox)TP) including imidazolone associated with oxazolone (dIzTP/dZTP), dehydroguanidinohydantoin (dOGhTP), and oxaluric acid (dOxaTP). We showed that the single-nucleotide incorporation of these dN (ox)TP at the 3'-end of a primer DNA strand was possible opposite C or G for dIzTP/dZTP, opposite C for dOGhTP using the Klenow fragment, and opposite C for dOxaTP using Taq. The efficiency of these misincorporations was compared to that of the nucleoside 5'-triphosphate modified with the mutagenic guanine lesion 8-oxo-G opposite A or C as well as to that of the natural dNTPs. The reaction was found not competitive. However, the ability of Kf exo- to further copy the whole template DNA strand from the primer carrying one modified residue at the 3'-end proved to be easy and rapid. The two-step polymerization process consisting of the single-nucleotide extension followed by the full extension of a primer afforded a method for the preparation of tailored double-stranded DNA oligonucleotides carrying a single modified base at a precise site on any sequence. This very rapid method allowed the incorporation of unique residues in DNA that were not available before due to their unstable character.

Abstract
The potential energy surface for formation of 2-amino-5-hydroxy-7,9-dihydropurine-6,8-dione (5-OH-OG), guanidinohydantoin (Gh) and spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) from 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) has been mapped out using B3LYP density functional theory, the aug-cc-pVTZ and 6-31+G(d,p) basis sets and the IEF-polarizable continuum model (PCM) solvation model. Three pathways for formation of 5-OH-OG from 8-oxoG were evaluated: (A) stepwise loss of two electrons and two protons to form the quinonoid intermediate 2-amino-7,9-dihydro-purine-6,8-dione (8-oxoG(ox)) followed by hydration; (B) stepwise loss of two electrons and one proton and net addition of hydroxide, in which the key step is nucleophilic addition to the 8-oxoG radical cation; and (C) stepwise loss of one electron and one proton and addition of hydroxyl radical to the 8-oxoG radical cation. The data suggest that all three pathways are energetically feasible mechanisms for the formation of 5-OH-OG, however, Pathway A may be kinetically favored over Pathway B. Although lower in energy, Pathway C may be of limited biological significance since it depends on the local concentration of hydroxyl radical. Pathways for hydrolysis and decarboxylation of 5-OH-OG to form Gh via either a carboxylic acid or substituted carbamic acid intermediate have been evaluated with the result that cleavage of the N1-C6 bond is clearly favored over that of the C5-C6 bond. Formation of Sp from 5-OH-OG via stepwise proton transfer and acyl migration or ring opening followed by proton transfer and ring closure have also been explored and suggest that deprotonation of the hydroxyl group facilitates a 1,2 acyl shift. Results of the calculations are consistent with experimental studies showing dependence of the Gh/Sp product ratio on pH. Under neutral and basic conditions, the data predict that formation of Sp is kinetically favored over the pathways for formation of Gh. Under acidic conditions, Gh is predicted to be the kinetically favored product.

Abstract
Oxidation of guanine (G) and 8-oxoguanine (OG) with a wide variety of oxidants yields the hydantoin lesions, guanidinohydantoin (Gh) and spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp). These two lesions have garnered much recent attention due to their unusual structures and high mutagenic potential. We have previously shown that duplexes containing Gh and Sp are substrates for the base excision repair glycosylase Escherichia coli Fpg (EcFpg). To evaluate the recognition features of these unusual lesions, binding and footprinting experiments were performed using a glycosylase inactive variant, E3Q EcFpg, and 30 bp duplexes containing the embedded lesions. Surprisingly, E3Q EcFpg was found to bind significantly more tightly ( approximately 1000-fold) to duplexes containing Gh or Sp over the corresponding duplexes containing OG. This may be a consequence of the helix-destabilizing nature of the hydantoin lesions that facilitates their recognition within duplex DNA. Though DNA binding affinities of E3Q EcFpg with Gh- and Sp-containing duplexes were found to be similar to each other, hydroxyl radical footprinting using methidium-propyl-EDTA (MPE)-Fe(II) revealed subtle differences between binding of E3Q EcFpg to the two lesions. Most notably, in the presence of E3Q EcFpg, the Sp nucleotide (nt) is hyperreactive toward cleavage by MPE-Fe(II)-generated hydroxyl radicals, suggestive of the formation of an intercalation site for the MPE-Fe(II) reagent at the Sp nt. Interestingly, increasing the duplex length from 18 to 30 bp enhanced the excision efficiency of Gh and Sp paired with C, G, or T by EcFpg such that these substrates are processed as efficiently as the signature substrate lesion, OG. Moreover, the base removal activity with these two lesions was more efficient than removal of OG when in a base pairing context opposite A. The high affinity and efficient activity of EcFpg toward the hydantoin lesions suggest that EcFpg mediates repair of the lesions in vivo. Notably, the facile activity of EcFpg toward Gh and Sp in base pairing contexts with G and A, which are likely to be present after DNA replication, would be detrimental and enhance mutagenesis.

Abstract
This survey focuses on recent aspects of the singlet oxygen oxidation of the guanine moiety of nucleosides, oligonucleotides, isolated and cellular DNA that has been shown to be the exclusive DNA target for this biologically relevant photogenerated oxidant. A large body of mechanistic data is now available from studies performed on nucleosides in both aprotic solvents and aqueous solutions. A common process to both reaction conditions is the formation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine by reduction of 8-hydroperoxyguanine that arises from the rearrangement of initially formed endoperoxide across the 4,8-bond of the purine moiety. However, in organic solvent the hydroperoxide is converted as a major degradation pathway into a dioxirane that subsequently decomposes into a complex pattern of oxidation products. A different reaction that involved the formation of a highly reactive quinonoid intermediate consecutively to the loss of a water molecule from the 8-hydroperoxide has been shown to occur in aqueous solution. Subsequent addition of a water molecule at C5 leads to the generation of a spiroiminodihy-dantoin compound via a rearrangement that involves an acyl shift. However, in both isolated and cellular DNA the latter decomposition pathway is at the best a minor process, because only 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine has been found to be generated. It is interesting to point out that singlet oxygen has been shown to contribute predominantly to the formation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine in the DNA of bacterial and human cells upon exposure to UVA radiation. It may be added that the formation of secondary singlet-oxygen oxidation products of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, including spiroiminodihydantoin and oxaluric acid that were characterized in nucleosides and oligonucleotide, respectively, have not yet been found in cellular DNA.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) is the major pathway employed to excise oxidized DNA lesions. Human Neil1, a versatile glycosylase in the BER pathway, repairs a diverse array of oxidative lesions; however, the most prevalent, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG), is only weakly excised. The structural origin of hNeil1's ability to repair a variety of lesions but not 8-oxoG is a model system for connecting enzyme structure and lesion-recognition specificity. To elucidate structural properties determining hNeil1's substrate specificities, we have investigated it in complex with two pairs of representative well-repaired substrates: the R- and S-spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) stereoisomers, nonplanar further oxidation products of guanine, and the 5R,6S- and 5S,6R-thymine glycol (Tg) stereoisomers, the most prevalent oxidative lesions of thymine. We also investigate the poorly repaired 8-oxoG. We employed molecular modeling and 10 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The results of our investigations provide structural explanations for the ability of hNeil1 to excise a variety of oxidative lesions: they possess common chemical features, namely, a pyrimidine-like ring and shared hydrogen bond donor-acceptor properties, which allow the lesions to fit well in the binding pocket, which is somewhat flexible. However, the planar 8-oxoG is not as well accommodated in the shallow and comparatively cramped recognition pocket; it has fewer hydrogen bonding interactions with the enzyme and a solvent exposed six-membered ring, consistent with its poor repair susceptibility by this enzyme.

Abstract
This review is devoted to chemical transformations of nucleic acids and their components under the action of nitrogen oxide metabolites. The deamination reaction of bases is discussed in the context of possible competing transformations of its intermediates (nitrosamines, diazonium cations, diazotates, triazenes, and diazoanhydrides) and mechanisms of crosslink formation with proteins and nucleic acids. The oxidation and nitration of bases by NO2 is considered together with the possibility of radical transfer to domains from the base stacks in DNA. Reduction of redox potentials of bases as a result of stacking interactions explains the possibility of their reactions within nucleic acids with the oxidants whose redox potential is insufficient for the effective reactions with mononucleotides. Modifications of nucleic acids with peroxynitrite derivatives are discussed in the context of the effect of the DNA primary structure and the modification products formed on the reactivity of single bases. The possibility of reduction of nitro groups within modified bases to amino derivatives and their subsequent diazotation is considered. The substitution of oxoguanine for nitroguanine residues may result; the reductive diazotation can lead to undamaged guanine. The intermediate modified bases, e.g., 8-aminoguanine and 8-diazoguanine, were shown to participate in noncanonical base pairing, including the formation of more stable bonds with two bases, which is characteristic of the DNA Z-form. A higher sensitivity of RNA in comparison with DNA to NO-dependent modifications (NODMs) is predicted on the basis of the contribution of medium microheterogeneity and the known mechanisms of nitrosylation and nitration. The possible biological consequences of nucleic acids NODMs are briefly considered. It is shown that the NODMs under the action of nitrogen oxide metabolites generated by macrophages and similar cells in inflammations or infections should lead to a sharp increase in the number of mutations in the case of RNA-containing viruses. As a result, the defense mechanisms of the host organism may contribute to the appearance of new, including more dangerous, variants of infecting viruses.

Abstract
Reactions of peroxynitrite with guanine were investigated using density functional theory (B3LYP) employing 6-31G** and AUG-cc-pVDZ basis sets. Single point energy calculations were performed at the MP2/AUG-cc-pVDZ level. Genuineness of the calculated transition states (TS) was tested by visually examining the vibrational modes corresponding to the imaginary vibrational frequencies and applying the criterion that the TS properly connected the reactant and product complexes (PC). Genuineness of all the calculated TS was further ensured by intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations. Effects of aqueous media were investigated by solvating all the species involved in the reactions using the polarizable continuum model (PCM). The calculations reveal that the most stable nitro-product complex involving the anion of 8-nitroguanine and a water molecule i.e. 8NO(2)G(-) + H(2)O can be formed according to one reaction mechanism while there are two possible reaction mechanisms for the formation of the oxo-product complex involving 8-oxoguanine and anion of the NO(2) group i.e. 8OG + NO(2)(-). The calculated relative stabilities of the PC, barrier energies of the reactions and the corresponding enthalpy changes suggest that formation of the complex 8OG + NO(2)(-) would be somewhat preferred over that of the complex 8NO(2)G(-) + H(2)O. The possible biological implications of this result are discussed.

Abstract
The electrochemical and chemical oxidation of a series of C8-arylamine adducts of 2'-deoxyguanosine has been examined. The oxidations were found to be reversible by cyclic and square-wave voltammetry in both aqueous buffer and aprotic organic solvent. The mechanism of the oxidation in protic media was either one- or two-electron, depending on the aryl group. The chemical oxidation resulted in guanidinohydantoin and spiroiminodihydantoin rearrangement products similar to those observed for 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine.
