Abstract
Guanine (Gua), among purines, is a preferred oxidation/nitration target because of its low one-electron redox potential. The reactive oxygen/nitrogen species peroxynitrite (ONOO-), produced in vivo by the reaction between nitric oxide (•NO) and superoxide radical (O2•‒), is responsible for several oxidative modifications in biomolecules, including nitration, nitrosation, oxidation, and peroxidation. In particular, the nitration of Gua, although detected, as well as its reaction kinetics have been seldom investigated. Thus, we studied the concentration- and temperature-dependent formation of 8-nitroguanine (8-NitroGua) in phosphate buffer (pH 7.40) using stopped-flow spectrophotometry. Traces showed a biexponential behavior, with best-fit rate constants: kfast = 4.4 s-1 and kslow = 0.41 s-1 (30 °C, 400 μM both Gua and ONOO-). kfast increased linearly with the concentration of both reactants whereas kslow was concentration-independent. Linear regression analysis of kfast as a function of Gua and ONOO- concentration yielded values of 2.5-6.3 × 103 M-1s-1 and 1.5-3.5 s-1 for the second-order (slope) and first-order (ordinate) rate constants, respectively (30 °C). Since ONOO- is a short-lived species, its decay kinetics was also taken into account for this analysis. The 8-NitroGua product was stable for at least 4 h, so no spontaneous denitration was observed. Stopped-flow assays using antioxidants and free-radical scavengers suggested a mixed direct/indirect reaction mechanism for 8-NitroGua formation. Gua nitration by ONOO- was also observed in the presence of physiologically relevant CO2 concentrations. The reaction product identity, its yield (∼4.2%, with 400 μM ONOO- and 200 μM Gua), and the reaction mechanism were unequivocally determined by HPLC-MS/MS experiments. In conclusion, 8-NitroGua production at physiologic pH reached significant levels in a few hundred milliseconds, suggesting that the process might be kinetically relevant in vivo and can likely cause permanent nitrative damage to DNA bases.

Products of Oxidative Guanine Damage Form Base Pairs with Guanine. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21207645. [PMID: 33076559 PMCID: PMC7589758 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21207645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2020] [Revised: 10/09/2020] [Accepted: 10/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Among the natural bases, guanine is the most oxidizable base. The damage caused by oxidation of guanine, commonly referred to as oxidative guanine damage, results in the formation of several products, including 2,5-diamino-4H-imidazol-4-one (Iz), 2,2,4-triamino-5(2H)-oxazolone (Oz), guanidinoformimine (Gf), guanidinohydantoin/iminoallantoin (Gh/Ia), spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (2Ih), urea (Ua), 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole (NI), spirodi(iminohydantoin) (5-Si and 8-Si), triazine, the M+7 product, other products by peroxynitrite, alkylated guanines, and 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cG). Herein, we summarize the present knowledge about base pairs containing the products of oxidative guanine damage and guanine. Of these products, Iz is involved in G-C transversions. Oz, Gh/Ia, and Sp form preferably Oz:G, Gh/Ia:G, and Sp:G base pairs in some cases. An involvement of Gf, 2Ih, Ua, 5-Si, 8-Si, triazine, the M+7 product, and 4-hydroxy-2,5-dioxo-imidazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (HICA) in G-C transversions requires further experiments. In addition, we describe base pairs that target the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of RNA viruses and describe implications for the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2): When products of oxidative guanine damage are adapted for the ribonucleoside analogs, mimics of oxidative guanine damages, which can form base pairs, may become antiviral agents for SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
It is generally believed that the mammalian nucleotide excision repair pathway removes DNA helix-distorting bulky DNA lesions, while small non-bulky lesions are repaired by base excision repair (BER). However, recent work demonstrates that the oxidativly generated guanine oxidation products, spiroimininodihydantoin (Sp), 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh), and certain intrastrand cross-linked lesions, are good substrates of NER and BER pathways that compete with one another in human cell extracts. The oxidation of guanine by peroxynitrite is known to generate 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole (NIm) which is structurally similar to Gh, except that the 4-nitro group in NIm is replaced by a keto group in Gh. However, unlike Gh, NIm is an excellent substrate of BER, but not of NER. These and other related results are reviewed and discussed in this article.

Abstract
The well known biomarker of oxidative stress, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, is more susceptible to further oxidation than the parent guanine base and can be oxidatively transformed to the genotoxic spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) and 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh) lesions. Incubation of 135-mer duplexes with single Sp or Gh lesions in human cell extracts yields a characteristic nucleotide excision repair (NER)-induced ladder of short dual incision oligonucleotide fragments in addition to base excision repair (BER) incision products. The ladders were not observed when NER was inhibited either by mouse monoclonal antibody (5F12) to human XPA or in XPC(-/-) fibroblast cell extracts. However, normal NER activity appeared when the XPC(-/-) cell extracts were complemented with XPC-RAD23B proteins. The Sp and Gh lesions are excellent substrates of both BER and NER. In contrast, 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole, a product of the oxidation of guanine in DNA by peroxynitrite, is an excellent substrate of BER only. In the case of mouse embryonic fibroblasts, BER of the Sp lesion is strongly reduced in NEIL1(-/-) relative to NEIL1(+/+) extracts. In summary, in human cell extracts, BER and NER activities co-exist and excise Gh and Sp DNA lesions, suggesting that the relative NER/BER product ratios may depend on competitive BER and NER protein binding to these lesions.

Abstract
DNA damage by endogenous and exogenous agents is a serious concern, as the damaged products can affect genome integrity severely. Damage to DNA may arise from various factors such as DNA base modifications, strand break, inter- and intrastrand crosslinks, and DNA-protein crosslinks. Among these factors, DNA base modification is a common and important form of DNA damage that has been implicated in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis, and many other pathological conditions. Among the four DNA bases, guanine (G) has the smallest oxidation potential, because of which it is frequently modified by reactive species, giving rise to a plethora of lethal lesions. Similarly, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG), an oxidatively damaged guanine lesion, also undergoes various degradation reactions giving rise to several mutagenic species. The various products formed from reactions of G or 8-oxoG with different reactive species are mainly 2,6-diamino-4-oxo-5-formamidopyrimidine, 2,5-diamino-4H-imidazolone, 2,2,4-triamino-5-(2H)-oxazolone, 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole, guanidinohydantoin, spiroiminodihydantoin, cyanuric acid, parabanic acid, oxaluric acid, and urea, among others. These products are formed from either ring opening or ring opening and subsequent rearrangement. The main aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of various possible reactions and the mechanisms involved, after which these ring-opened and rearranged products of guanine would be formed in DNA. The biological significance of oxidatively damaged products of G is also discussed.

Abstract
M06-2X/6-31G(d,p) is used to calculate the structure of all natural deoxydinucleoside monophosphates with G in the 5' or 3' position, the anti or syn conformation, and each natural (A, C, G, T) base in the corresponding flanking position. When the ortho or para C8-phenoxyl-2'-deoxyguanosine (C8-phenoxyl-dG) adduct replaces G in each model, there is little change in the relative base-base orientation or backbone conformation. However, the orientation of the C8-phenoxyl group can be characterized according to the position (5' versus 3'), conformation (anti versus syn), and isomer (ortho versus para) of damage. Although the degree of coplanarity between the phenoxyl ring and G base in the ortho adduct is highly affected by the sequence since the hydroxyl group can interact with neighboring bases, the para adduct generally does not exhibit discrete interactions with flanking bases. For both adducts, steric clashes between the phenoxyl group and the backbone or flanking base destabilize the anti conformation preferred by the natural nucleotide and thereby result in a clear preference for the syn conformation regardless of the sequence or position. This contrasts the conclusions drawn from smaller (nucleoside, nucleotide) models previously used in the literature, which stresses the importance of using models that address the steric constraints present due to the surrounding environment. Since replication errors for other C8-dG bulky adducts have been linked to a preference for the syn conformation, our findings provide insight into the possible mutagenicity of phenolic adducts.

Abstract
Damage in transcribed DNA presents a challenge to the cell because it can partially or completely block the progression of an RNA polymerase, interfering with transcription and compromising gene expression. While blockage of RNA polymerase progression is thought to trigger the recruitment of transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR), bypass of the lesion can also occur, either error-prone or error-free. Error-prone transcription is often referred to as transcriptional mutagenesis (TM). Elucidating why some lesions pose blocks to transcription elongation while others do not remains a challenging problem. As part of an effort to understand this, we studied transcription past a 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole (NI) lesion, using two structurally different RNA polymerases, human RNA polymerase II (hRNAPII) and bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase (T7RNAP). The NI damage results from the oxidation of guanine in DNA by peroxynitrite, a well known, biologically important oxidant. It is of structural interest because it is a ring-opened and conformationally flexible guanine lesion. Our results show that NI acts as a partial block to T7RNAP while posing a major block to hRNAPII, which has a more constrained active site than T7RNAP. Lesion bypass by T7RNAP induces base misincorporations and deletions opposite the lesion (C>A>-1 deletion >G >>> U), but hRNAPII exhibits error-free transcription although lesion bypass is a rare event. We employed molecular modeling methods to explain the observed blockage or bypass accompanied by nucleotide incorporation opposite the lesion. The results of the modeling studies indicate that NI's multiple hydrogen-bonding capabilities and torsional flexibility are important determinants of its effect on transcription in both enzymes. These influence the kinetics of lesion bypass and may well play a role in TM and TCR in cells.
