Abstract
Acrolein is a major component in cigarette smoke and a product of endogenous lipid peroxidation. It is difficult to distinguish human exposure to acrolein from exogenous sources versus endogenous causes, as components in cigarette smoke can stimulate lipid peroxidation in vivo. Therefore, analysis of acrolein-induced DNA and protein adducts by the highly accurate, sensitive, and specific mass spectrometry-based methods is vital to estimate the degree of damage by this IARC Group 2A carcinogen. This Perspective reviews the analyses of acrolein-induced DNA and protein adducts in humans by mass spectrometry focusing on samples accessible for biomonitoring, including DNA from leukocytes and oral cells and abundant proteins from blood, i.e., hemoglobin and serum albumin.

Abstract
DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) prevent DNA replication and transcription and can lead to potentially lethal events, such as cancer or bone marrow failure. ICLs are typically repaired by proteins within the Fanconi Anemia (FA) pathway, although the details of the pathway are not fully established. Methods to generate DNA containing ICLs are key to furthering the understanding of DNA cross-link repair. A major route to ICL formation in vivo involves reaction of DNA with acetaldehyde, derived from ethanol metabolism. This reaction forms a three-carbon bridged ICL involving the amino groups of adjacent guanines in opposite strands of a duplex resulting in amino and imino functionalities. A stable reduced form of the ICL has applications in understanding the recognition and repair of these types of adducts. Previous routes to creating DNA duplexes containing these adducts have involved lengthy post-DNA synthesis chemistry followed by reduction of the imine. Here, an efficient and high-yielding approach to the reduced ICL using a novel N2-((R)-4-trifluoroacetamidobutan-2-yl)-2'-deoxyguanosine phosphoramidite is described. Following standard automated DNA synthesis and deprotection, the ICL is formed overnight in over 90% yield upon incubation at room temperature with a complementary oligodeoxyribonucleotide containing 2-fluoro-2'-deoxyinosine. The cross-linked duplex displayed a melting transition 25 °C higher than control sequences. Importantly, we show using the Xenopus egg extract system that an ICL synthesized by this method is repaired by the FA pathway. The simplicity and efficiency of this methodology for preparing reduced acetaldehyde ICLs will facilitate access to these DNA architectures for future studies on cross-link repair.

Abstract
Acrolein, an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde, is generated in vivo as the end product of lipid peroxidation and from metabolic oxidation of polyamines, and it is a ubiquitous environmental pollutant. The reaction of acrolein with the N2 of guanine in DNA leads to the formation of γ-hydroxy-1-N2-propano-2' deoxyguanosine (γ-HOPdG), which can exist in DNA in a ring-closed or a ring-opened form. Here, we identified the translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases (Pols) that conduct replication through the permanently ring-opened reduced form of γ-HOPdG ((r) γ-HOPdG) and show that replication through this adduct is mediated via Rev1/Polη-, Polι/Polκ-, and Polθ-dependent pathways, respectively. Based on biochemical and structural studies, we propose a role for Rev1 and Polι in inserting a nucleotide (nt) opposite the adduct and for Pols η and κ in extending synthesis from the inserted nt in the respective TLS pathway. Based on genetic analyses and biochemical studies with Polθ, we infer a role for Polθ at both the nt insertion and extension steps of TLS. Whereas purified Rev1 and Polθ primarily incorporate a C opposite (r) γ-HOPdG, Polι incorporates a C or a T opposite the adduct; nevertheless, TLS mediated by the Polι-dependent pathway as well as by other pathways occurs in a predominantly error-free manner in human cells. We discuss the implications of these observations for the mechanisms that could affect the efficiency and fidelity of TLS Pols.

Abstract
A general theoretical investigation on the reaction of primary amine with aldehyde was carried out by density functional theory. The calculation systems involve three kinds of primary amines (methylamine, vinylamine, and phenylamine) and three kinds of aldehydes (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acrylaldehyde). The steric and electronic inductive effects on the reaction mechanism were studied. Results reveal that the nucleophilic attack of primary amine on aldehyde under neutral conditions leads to carbinolamines, rather than Schiff bases. The nucleophilic attack on the protonated aldehyde produces the protonated Schiff base. The steric hindrance of the aldehyde slows down the nucleophilic attack but allows enough time to abstract a H; consequently, the formation of the protonated Schiff base is preferred. During the carbinolamine protonation, the H(+) preferably locates on the amine nitrogen and then is abstracted by the hydroxyl oxygen over an energy barrier, leaving protonated Schiff base after timely water liberation. The formation of a prereaction potential energy well obviously softens the steric and electronic inductive effects on the active barrier for different reactants.

Abstract
Acrolein, a mutagenic aldehyde, reacts with deoxyguanosine (dG) to form 3-(2'-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-8-hydroxypyrimido[1,2-a] purin-10(3H)-one (γ-OH-PdG). When placed opposite deoxycytosine (dC) in DNA, γ-OH-PdG undergoes ring-opening to the N(2)-(3-oxopropyl)-dG. Ring-opening of the adduct has been hypothesized to facilitate nonmutagenic bypass, particularly by DNA polymerases of the Y family. This study examined the bypass of γ-OH-PdG by Sulfolobus solfataricus Dpo4, the prototypic Y-family DNA polymerase, using templates that contained the adduct in either the 5'-CXG-3' or the 5'-TXG-3' sequence context. Although γ-OH-PdG partially blocked Dpo4-catalyzed DNA synthesis, full primer extension was observed, and the majority of bypass products were error-free. Conversion of the adduct into an irreversibly ring-opened derivative prior to reaction facilitated bypass and further improved the fidelity. Structures of ternary Dpo4·DNA·dNTP complexes were determined with primers that either were positioned immediately upstream of the lesion (preinsertion complexes) or had a 3'-terminal dC opposite the lesion (postinsertion complexes); the incoming nucleotides, either dGTP or dATP, were complementary to the template 5'-neighbor nucleotide. In both postinsertion complexes, the adduct existed as ring-opened species, and the resulting base-pair featured Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding. The incoming nucleotide paired with the 5'-neighbor template, while the primer 3'-hydroxyl was positioned to facilitate extension. In contrast, γ-OH-PdG was in the ring-closed form in both preinsertion complexes, and the overall structure did not favor catalysis. These data provide insights into γ-OH-PdG chemistry during replication bypass by the Dpo4 DNA polymerase and may explain why γ-OH-PdG-induced mutations due to primer-template misalignment are uncommon.

Abstract
Acrolein, a mutagenic aldehyde, is produced endogenously by lipid peroxidation and exogenously by combustion of organic materials, including tobacco products. Acrolein reacts with DNA bases forming exocyclic DNA adducts, such as γ-hydroxy-1,N(2)-propano-2'-deoxyguanosine (γ-HOPdG) and γ-hydroxy-1,N(6)-propano-2'-deoxyadenosine (γ-HOPdA). The bulky γ-HOPdG adduct blocks DNA synthesis by replicative polymerases but can be bypassed by translesion synthesis polymerases in the nucleus. Although acrolein-induced adducts are likely to be formed and persist in mitochondrial DNA, animal cell mitochondria lack specialized translesion DNA synthesis polymerases to tolerate these lesions. Thus, it is important to understand how pol γ, the sole mitochondrial DNA polymerase in human cells, acts on acrolein-adducted DNA. To address this question, we investigated the ability of pol γ to bypass the minor groove γ-HOPdG and major groove γ-HOPdA adducts using single nucleotide incorporation and primer extension analyses. The efficiency of pol γ-catalyzed bypass of γ-HOPdG was low, and surprisingly, pol γ preferred to incorporate purine nucleotides opposite the adduct. Pol γ also exhibited ∼2-fold lower rates of excision of the misincorporated purine nucleotides opposite γ-HOPdG compared with the corresponding nucleotides opposite dG. Extension of primers from the termini opposite γ-HOPdG was accomplished only following error-prone purine nucleotide incorporation. However, pol γ preferentially incorporated dT opposite the γ-HOPdA adduct and efficiently extended primers from the correctly paired terminus, indicating that γ-HOPdA is probably nonmutagenic. In summary, our data suggest that acrolein-induced exocyclic DNA lesions can be bypassed by mitochondrial DNA polymerase but, in the case of the minor groove γ-HOPdG adduct, at the cost of unprecedented high mutation rates.

Abstract
Benzene is employed in large quantities in the chemical industry and is an ubiquitous contaminant in the environment. There is strong epidemiological evidence that benzene exposure induces hematopoietic malignancies, especially acute myeloid leukemia, in humans, but the chemical mechanisms remain obscure. E,E-Muconaldehyde is one of the products of metabolic oxidation of benzene. This paper explores the proposition that E,E-muconaldehyde is capable of forming Gua-Gua cross-links. If formed in DNA, the replication and repair of such cross-links might introduce structural defects that could be the origin of the carcinogenicity. We have investigated the reaction of E,E-muconaldehyde with dGuo and found that the reaction yields two pairs of interconverting diastereomers of a novel heptacyclic bis-adduct having a spiro ring system linking the two Gua residues. The structures of the four diastereomers have been established by NMR spectroscopy and their absolute configurations by comparison of CD spectra with those of model compounds having known configurations. The final two steps in the formation of the bis-nucleoside (5-ring → 6-ring → 7-ring) have significant reversibility, which is the basis for the observed epimerization. The 6-ring precursor was trapped from the equilibrating mixture by reduction with NaBH(4). The anti relationship of the two Gua residues in the heptacyclic bis-adduct precludes it from being formed in B DNA, but the 6-ring precursor could readily be accommodated as an interchain or intrachain cross-link. It should be possible to form similar cross-links of dCyt, dAdo, the ε-amino group of lysine, the imidazole NH of histidine, and N termini of peptides with the dGuo-muconaldehyde monoadduct.

Abstract
![]()
Michael addition of trans-4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) to deoxyguanosine yields diastereomeric 1,N2-dG adducts in DNA. When placed opposite dC in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence, the (6S,8R,11S) diastereomer forms a N2-dG:N2-dG interstrand cross-link [Wang, H.; Kozekov, I. D.; Harris, T. M.; Rizzo, C. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc.2003, 125, 5687–5700]. We refined its structure in 5′-d(G1C2T3A4G5C6X7A8G9T10C11C12)-3′·5′-d(G13G14A15C16T17C18Y19C20T21A22G23C24)-3′ [X7 is the dG adjacent to the C6 carbon of the cross-link or the α-carbon of the (6S,8R,11S) 1,N2-dG adduct, and Y19 is the dG adjacent to the C8 carbon of the cross-link or the γ-carbon of the HNE-derived (6S,8R,11S) 1,N2-dG adduct; the cross-link is in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence]. Introduction of 13C at the C8 carbon of the cross-link revealed one 13C8→H8 correlation, indicating that the cross-link existed predominantly as a carbinolamine linkage. The H8 proton exhibited NOEs to Y19 H1′, C20 H1′, and C20 H4′, orienting it toward the complementary strand, consistent with the (6S,8R,11S) configuration. An NOE was also observed between the HNE H11 proton and Y19 H1′, orienting the former toward the complementary strand. Imine and pyrimidopurinone linkages were excluded by observation of the Y19N2H and X7 N1H protons, respectively. A strong H8→H11 NOE and no 3J(13C→H) coupling for the 13C8–O–C11–H11 eliminated the tetrahydrofuran species derived from the (6S,8R,11S) 1,N2-dG adduct. The (6S,8R,11S) carbinolamine linkage and the HNE side chain were located in the minor groove. The X7N2 and Y19N2 atoms were in the gauche conformation with respect to the linkage, maintaining Watson–Crick hydrogen bonds at the cross-linked base pairs. A solvated molecular dynamics simulation indicated that the anti conformation of the hydroxyl group with respect to C6 of the tether minimized steric interaction and predicted hydrogen bonds involving O8H with C20O2 of the 5′-neighbor base pair G5·C20 and O11H with C18O2 of X7·C18. These may, in part, explain the stability of this cross-link and the stereochemical preference for the (6S,8R,11S) configuration.

Abstract
The formation of adducts by the reaction of chemicals with DNA is a critical step for the initiation of carcinogenesis. The structural analysis of various DNA adducts reveals that conformational and chemical rearrangements and interconversions are a common theme. Conformational changes are modulated both by the nature of adduct and the base sequences neighboring the lesion sites. Equilibria between conformational states may modulate both DNA repair and error-prone replication past these adducts. Likewise, chemical rearrangements of initially formed DNA adducts are also modulated both by the nature of adducts and the base sequences neighboring the lesion sites. In this review, we focus on DNA damage caused by a number of environmental and endogenous agents, and biological consequences.

Abstract
The γ-hydroxy-1,N(2)-propano-2'-deoxyguanosine adduct (γ-OH-PdG) was introduced into 5'-d(GCTAGCXAGTCC)-3'·5'-d(GGACTCGCTAGC)-3' (X = γ-OH-PdG). In the presence of excess peptide KWKK, (13)C isotope-edited NMR revealed the formation of two spectroscopically distinct DNA-KWKK conjugates. These involved the reaction of the KWKK N-terminal amino group with the N(2)-dG propylaldehyde tautomer of the γ-OH-PdG lesion. The guanine N1 base imino resonance at the site of conjugation was observed in isotope-edited (15)N NMR experiments, suggesting that the conjugated guanine was inserted into the duplex and that the guanine imino proton was protected from exchange with water. The conjugates could be reduced in the presence of NaCNBH(3), suggesting that they existed, in part, as imine (Schiff base) linkages. However, (13)C isotope-edited NMR failed to detect the imine linkages, suggesting that these KWKK conjugates existed predominantly as diastereomeric carbinolamines, in equilibrium with trace amounts of the imines. The structures of the diastereomeric DNA-KWKK conjugates were predicted from potential energy minimization of model structures derived from the refined structure of the fully reduced cross-link [ Huang, H., Kozekov, I. D., Kozekova, A., Rizzo, C. J., McCullough, A., Lloyd, R. S., and Stone, M. P. ( 2010 ) Biochemistry , 49 , 6155 -6164 ]. Molecular dynamics calculations carried out in explicit solvent suggested that the conjugate bearing the S-carbinolamine linkage was the major species due to its potential for intramolecular hydrogen bonding. These carbinolamine DNA-KWKK conjugates thermally stabilized duplex DNA. However, the DNA-KWKK conjugates were chemically reversible and dissociated when the DNA was denatured. In this 5'-CpX-3' sequence, the DNA-KWKK conjugates slowly converted to interstrand N(2)-dG:N(2)-dG DNA cross-links and ring-opened γ-OH-PdG derivatives over a period of weeks.

Abstract
Acrolein mutagenicity relies on DNA adduct formation. Reaction of acrolein with deoxyguanosine generates alpha-hydroxy-1, N(2)-propano-2'-deoxyguanosine (alpha-HOPdG) and gamma-hydroxy-1, N(2)-propano-2'-deoxyguanosine (gamma-HOPdG) adducts. These two DNA adducts behave differently in mutagenicity. gamma-HOPdG is the major DNA adduct and it can lead to interstrand DNA-DNA and DNA-peptide/protein cross-links, which may induce strong mutagenicity; however, gamma-HOPdG can be repaired by some DNA polymerases complex and lessen its mutagenic effects. alpha-HOPdG is formed much less than gamma-HOPdG, but difficult to be repaired, which contributes to accumulation in vivo. Results of acrolein mutagenicity studies haven't been confirmed, which is mainly due to the conflicting mutagenicity data of the major acrolein adduct (gamma-HOPdG). The minor alpha-HOPdG is mutagenic in both in vitro and in vivo test systems. The role of alpha-HOPdG in acrolein mutagenicity needs further investigation. The inconsistent result of acrolein mutagenicity can be attributed, at least partially, to a variety of acrolein-DNA adducts formation and their repair in diverse detection systems. Recent results of detection of acrolein-DNA adduct in human lung tissues and analysis of P53 mutation spectra in acrolein-treated cells may shed some light on mechanisms of acrolein mutagenicity. These aspects are covered in this mini review.

Abstract
![]()
Synthetically derived trimethylene interstrand DNA cross-links have been used as surrogates for the native cross-links that arise from the 1,N2-deoxyguanosine adducts derived from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The native enal-mediated cross-linking occurs in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence context but not in the 5′-GpC-3′ sequence context. The ability of the native enal-derived 1,N2-dG adducts to induce interstrand DNA cross-links in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence as opposed to the 5′-GpC-3′ sequence is attributed to the destabilization of the DNA duplex in the latter sequence context. Here, we report higher accuracy solution structures of the synthetically derived trimethylene cross-links, which are refined from NMR data with the AMBER force field. When the synthetic trimethylene cross-links are placed into either the 5′-CpG-3′ or the 5′-GpC-3′ sequence contexts, the DNA duplex maintains B-DNA geometry with structural perturbations confined to the cross-linked base pairs. Watson−Crick hydrogen bonding is conserved throughout the duplexes. Although different from canonical B-DNA stacking, the cross-linked and the neighbor base pairs stack in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence. In contrast, the stacking at the cross-linked base pairs in the 5′-GpC-3′ sequence is greatly perturbed. The π-stacking interactions between the cross-linked and the neighbor base pairs are reduced. This is consistent with remarkable chemical shift perturbations of the C5 H5 and H6 nucleobase protons that shifted downfield by 0.4−0.5 ppm. In contrast, these chemical shift perturbations in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence are not remarkable, consistent with the stacked structure. The differential stacking of the base pairs at the cross-linking region probably explains the difference in stabilities of the trimethylene cross-links in the 5′-CpG-3′ and 5′-GpC-3′ sequence contexts and might, in turn, account for the sequence selectivity of the interstrand cross-link formation induced by the native enal-derived 1,N2-dG adducts.

Abstract
![]()
The α,β-unsaturated aldehydes (enals) acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and trans-4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) are products of endogenous lipid peroxidation, arising as a consequence of oxidative stress. The addition of enals to dG involves Michael addition of the N2-amine to give N2-(3-oxopropyl)-dG adducts, followed by reversible cyclization of N1 with the aldehyde, yielding 1,N2-dG exocyclic products. The 1,N2-dG exocyclic adducts from acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and 4-HNE exist in human and rodent DNA. The enal-induced 1,N2-dG lesions are repaired by the nucleotide excision repair pathway in both Escherichia coli and mammalian cells. Oligodeoxynucleotides containing structurally defined 1,N2-dG adducts of acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and 4-HNE were synthesized via a postsynthetic modification strategy. Site-specific mutagenesis of enal adducts has been carried out in E. coli and various mammalian cells. In all cases, the predominant mutations observed are G→T transversions, but these adducts are not strongly miscoding. When placed into duplex DNA opposite dC, the 1,N2-dG exocyclic lesions undergo ring opening to the corresponding N2-(3-oxopropyl)-dG derivatives. Significantly, this places a reactive aldehyde in the minor groove of DNA, and the adducted base possesses a modestly perturbed Watson−Crick face. Replication bypass studies in vitro indicate that DNA synthesis past the ring-opened lesions can be catalyzed by pol η, pol ι, and pol κ. It also can be accomplished by a combination of Rev1 and pol ζ acting sequentially. However, efficient nucleotide insertion opposite the 1,N2-dG ring-closed adducts can be carried out only by pol ι and Rev1, two DNA polymerases that do not rely on the Watson−Crick pairing to recognize the template base. The N2-(3-oxopropyl)-dG adducts can undergo further chemistry, forming interstrand DNA cross-links in the 5′-CpG-3′ sequence, intrastrand DNA cross-links, or DNA−protein conjugates. NMR and mass spectrometric analyses indicate that the DNA interstand cross-links contain a mixture of carbinolamine and Schiff base, with the carbinolamine forms of the linkages predominating in duplex DNA. The reduced derivatives of the enal-mediated N2-dG:N2-dG interstrand cross-links can be processed in mammalian cells by a mechanism not requiring homologous recombination. Mutations are rarely generated during processing of these cross-links. In contrast, the reduced acrolein-mediated N2-dG peptide conjugates can be more mutagenic than the corresponding monoadduct. DNA polymerases of the DinB family, pol IV in E. coli and pol κ in human, are implicated in error-free bypass of model acrolein-mediated N2-dG secondary adducts, the interstrand cross-links, and the peptide conjugates.

Abstract
Acrolein reacts with dG to form hydroxylated 1,N(2)-propanodeoxyguanosine (OH-PdG) adducts. Most abundant are the epimeric 3-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-8-hydroxypyrimido[1,2a] purin-10(3H)-ones, commonly referred to as the gamma-OH-PdG adducts. When placed complementary to deoxycytosine in duplex DNA, these undergo rearrangement to the N(2)-(3-oxopropyl)-dG aldehyde. The latter forms diastereomeric interstrand N(2)-dG:N(2)-dG cross-links in the 5'-CpG-3' sequence. Here we report the structure of the stereochemically favored (R)-gamma-hydroxytrimethylene N(2)-dG:N(2)-dG interstrand DNA cross-link in 5'-d(G(1)C(2)T(3)A(4)G(5)C(6)X(7)A(8)G(9)T(10)C(11)C(12))-3' x 5'-d(G(13)G(14)A(15)C(16)T(17)C(18)Y(19)C(20)T(21)A(22)G(23)C(24))-3' (X(7) is the dG linked to the alpha-carbon of the carbinolamine linkage, and Y(19) is the dG linked to the gamma-carbon of the carbinolamine linkage; the cross-link is in the 5'-CpG-3' sequence). The structure was characterized using isotope-edited (15)N nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy heteronuclear single quantum correlation (NOESY-HSQC) NMR, in which the exocyclic amines at X(7) or Y(19) were (15)N-labeled. Analyses of NOE intensities involving Y(19) N(2)H indicated that the (R)-gamma-hydroxytrimethylene linkage was the major cross-link species, constituting 80-90% of the cross-link. The X(7) and Y(19) imino resonances were observed at 65 degrees C. Additionally, for the 5'-neighbor base pair G(5) x C(20), the G(5) imino resonance remained sharp at 55 degrees C but broadened at 65 degrees C. In contrast, for the 3'-neighbor A(8) x T(17) base pair, the T(17) imino resonance was severely broadened at 55 degrees C. Structural refinement using NOE distance restraints obtained from isotope-edited (15)N NOESY-HSQC data indicated that the (R)-gamma-hydroxytrimethylene linkage maintained the C(6) x Y(19) and X(7) x C(18) base pairs with minimal structural perturbations. The (R)-gamma-hydroxytrimethylene linkage was located in the minor groove. The X(7) N(2) and Y(19) N(2) atoms were in the gauche conformation with respect to the linkage, which maintained Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding of the cross-linked base pairs. The anti conformation of the hydroxyl group with respect to C(alpha) of the tether minimized steric interaction and, more importantly, allowed the formation of a hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl group and C(20) O(2) located in the 5'-neighboring base pair G(5) x C(20). The formation of this hydrogen bond may, in part, explain the thermal stability of this carbinolamine interstrand cross-link and the stereochemical preference for the (R) configuration of the cross-link.

Abstract
The (6S,8R,11S) 1,N(2)-HNE-dGuo adduct of trans-4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) was incorporated into the duplex 5'-d(GCTAGCXAGTCC)-3'.5'-d(GGACTAGCTAGC)-3' [X = (6S,8R,11S) HNE-dG], in which the lesion was mismatched opposite dAdo. The (6S,8R,11S) adduct maintained the ring-closed 1,N(2)-HNE-dG structure. This was in contrast to when this adduct was correctly paired with dCyd, conditions under which it underwent ring opening and rearrangement to diastereomeric minor groove cyclic hemiacetals [ Huang , H. , Wang , H. , Qi , N. , Lloyd , R. S. , Harris , T. M. , Rizzo , C. J. , and Stone , M. P. ( 2008 ) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 130 , 10898 - 10906 ]. The (6S,8R,11S) adduct exhibited a syn/anti conformational equilibrium about the glycosyl bond. The syn conformation was predominant in acidic solution. Structural analysis of the syn conformation revealed that X(7) formed a distorted base pair with the complementary protonated A(18). The HNE moiety was located in the major groove. Structural perturbations were observed at the neighbor C(6).G(19) and A(8).T(17) base pairs. At basic pH, the anti conformation of X(7) was the major species. The 1,N(2)-HNE-dG intercalated and displaced the complementary A(18) in the 5'-direction, resulting in a bulge at the X(7).A(18) base pair. The HNE aliphatic chain was oriented toward the minor groove. The Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding of the neighboring A(8).T(17) base pair was also disrupted.

Abstract
Recently, a phenylselenyl-modified thymidine (2) was shown to produce DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) via two mechanisms. Photolysis of 2 generates 5-(2'-deoxyuridinyl)methyl radical (1), the reactive intermediate that results from formal hydrogen atom abstraction from the thymine methyl group. This reactive intermediate reacts with the opposing dA and is the first example of a DNA radical that produces ICLs. Kinetic competition studies support the proposal that the rate-limiting step in ICL formation from 1 involves rotation about the glycosidic bond and that the rate constant for this process is influenced by the flanking sequence. Cross-links also form with the opposing dA when 2 is treated with mild oxidants that result in the formation of an intermediate methide-like species (4). Kinetic experiments reveal that 4 reacts with azide, a model nucleophile, via an S(N)2' pathway. Previous experiments suggested that the same product is produced via 1 or 4 but that the initially formed cross-link rearranges during the enzyme digestion and isolation procedures. In situ product analysis by NMR using synthetic, doubly labeled duplex DNA containing (13)C-2 and (15)N(1)-dA provides definitive evidence that the kinetic ICL products formed via the radical and oxidative pathways are the same and correspond to that arising from formal alkylation of N(1)-dA. Furthermore, analysis of the thermodynamic product formed upon rearrangement indicates that the primary product isomerizes via an associative mechanism in DNA.

Abstract
The trans-4-hydroxynonenal (HNE)-derived exocyclic 1, N(2)-dG adduct with (6S,8R,11S) stereochemistry forms interstrand N(2)-dG-N(2)-dG cross-links in the 5'-CpG-3' DNA sequence context, but the corresponding adduct possessing (6R,8S,11R) stereochemistry does not. Both exist primarily as diastereomeric cyclic hemiacetals when placed into duplex DNA [Huang, H., Wang, H., Qi, N., Kozekova, A., Rizzo, C. J., and Stone, M. P. (2008) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 130, 10898-10906]. To explore the structural basis for this difference, the HNE-derived diastereomeric (6S,8R,11S) and (6R,8S,11R) cyclic hemiacetals were examined with respect to conformation when incorporated into 5'-d(GCTAGC XAGTCC)-3' x 5'-d(GGACTCGCTAGC)-3', containing the 5'-CpX-3' sequence [X = (6S,8R,11S)- or (6R,8S,11R)-HNE-dG]. At neutral pH, both adducts exhibited minimal structural perturbations to the DNA duplex that were localized to the site of the adduction at X(7) x C(18) and its neighboring base pair, A(8) x T(17). Both the (6S,8R,11S) and (6R,8S,11R) cyclic hemiacetals were located within the minor groove of the duplex. However, the respective orientations of the two cyclic hemiacetals within the minor groove were dependent upon (6S) versus (6R) stereochemistry. The (6S,8R,11S) cyclic hemiacetal was oriented in the 5'-direction, while the (6R,8S,11R) cyclic hemiacetal was oriented in the 3'-direction. These cyclic hemiacetals effectively mask the reactive aldehydes necessary for initiation of interstrand cross-link formation. From the refined structures of the two cyclic hemiacetals, the conformations of the corresponding diastereomeric aldehydes were predicted, using molecular mechanics calculations. Potential energy minimizations of the duplexes containing the two diastereomeric aldehydes predicted that the (6S,8R,11S) aldehyde was oriented in the 5'-direction while the (6R,8S,11R) aldehyde was oriented in the 3'-direction. These stereochemical differences in orientation suggest a kinetic basis that explains, in part, why the (6S,8R,11S) stereoisomer forms interchain cross-links in the 5'-CpG-3' sequence whereas the (6R,8S,11R) stereoisomer does not.

Abstract
trans-4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a peroxidation product of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The Michael addition of deoxyguanosine to HNE yields four diastereomeric exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adducts. The corresponding acrolein- and crotonaldehyde-derived exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adducts undergo ring-opening to N(2)-dG aldehydes, placing the aldehyde functionalities into the minor groove of DNA. The acrolein- and the 6R-crotonaldehyde-derived exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adducts form interstrand N(2)-dG:N(2)-dG cross-links in the 5'-CpG-3' sequence context. Only the HNE-derived exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adduct of (6S,8R,11S) stereochemistry forms interstrand N(2)-dG:N(2)-dG cross-links in the 5'-CpG-3' sequence context. Moreover, as compared to the exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adducts of acrolein and crotonaldehyde, the cross-linking reaction is slow (Wang, H.; Kozekov, I. D.; Harris, T. M.; Rizzo, C. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 5687-5700). Accordingly, the chemistry of the HNE-derived exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adduct of (6S,8R,11S) stereochemistry has been compared with that of the (6R,8S,11R) adduct, when incorporated into 5'-d(GCTAGCXAGTCC)-3'.5'-d(GGACTCGCTAGC)-3', containing the 5'-CpG-3' sequence (X = HNE-dG). When placed complementary to dC in this duplex, both adducts open to the corresponding N(2)-dG aldehydic rearrangement products, suggesting that the formation of the interstrand cross-link by the exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adduct of (6S,8R,11S) stereochemistry, and the lack of cross-link formation by the exocyclic 1,N(2)-dG adduct of (6R,8S,11R) stereochemistry, is not attributable to inability to undergo ring-opening to the aldehydes in duplex DNA. Instead, these aldehydic rearrangement products exist in equilibrium with stereoisomeric cyclic hemiacetals. The latter are the predominant species present at equilibrium. The trans configuration of the HNE H6 and H8 protons is preferred. The presence of these cyclic hemiacetals in duplex DNA is significant as they mask the aldehyde species necessary for interstrand cross-link formation.

Abstract
Repair of interstrand DNA cross-links (ICLs) in Escherichia coli can occur through a combination of nucleotide excision repair (NER) and homologous recombination. However, an alternative mechanism has been proposed in which repair is initiated by NER followed by translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) and completed through another round of NER. Using site-specifically modified oligodeoxynucleotides that serve as a model for potential repair intermediates following incision by E. coli NER proteins, the ability of E. coli DNA polymerases (pol) II and IV to catalyze TLS past N(2)-N(2)-guanine ICLs was determined. No biochemical evidence was found suggesting that pol II could bypass these lesions. In contrast, pol IV could catalyze TLS when the nucleotides that are 5' to the cross-link were removed. The efficiency of TLS was further increased when the nucleotides 3' to the cross-linked site were also removed. The correct nucleotide, C, was preferentially incorporated opposite the lesion. When E. coli cells were transformed with a vector carrying a site-specific N(2)-N(2)-guanine ICL, the transformation efficiency of a pol II-deficient strain was indistinguishable from that of the wild type. However, the ability to replicate the modified vector DNA was nearly abolished in a pol IV-deficient strain. These data strongly suggest that pol IV is responsible for TLS past N(2)-N(2)-guanine ICLs.

Abstract
Significant levels of the 1, N(2)-gamma-hydroxypropano-dG adducts of the alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal (HNE) have been identified in human DNA, arising from both exogenous and endogenous exposures. They yield interstrand DNA cross-links between guanines in the neighboring C.G and G.C base pairs located in 5'-CpG-3' sequences, as a result of opening of the 1,N(2)-gamma-hydroxypropano-dG adducts to form reactive aldehydes that are positioned within the minor groove of duplex DNA. Using a combination of chemical, spectroscopic, and computational methods, we have elucidated the chemistry of cross-link formation in duplex DNA. NMR spectroscopy revealed that, at equilibrium, the acrolein and crotonaldehyde cross-links consist primarily of interstrand carbinolamine linkages between the exocyclic amines of the two guanines located in the neighboring C.G and G.C base pairs located in 5'-CpG-3' sequences, that maintain the Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding of the cross-linked base pairs. The ability of crotonaldehyde and HNE to form interstrand cross-links depends upon their common relative stereochemistry at the C6 position of the 1,N(2)-gamma-hydroxypropano-dG adduct. The stereochemistry at this center modulates the orientation of the reactive aldehyde within the minor groove of the double-stranded DNA, either facilitating or hindering the cross-linking reactions; it also affects the stabilities of the resulting diastereoisomeric cross-links. The presence of these cross-links in vivo is anticipated to interfere with DNA replication and transcription, thereby contributing to the etiology of human disease. Reduced derivatives of these cross-links are useful tools for studying their biological processing.

Abstract
Acrolein is generated as the end product of lipid peroxidation and is also a ubiquitous environmental pollutant. Its reaction with the N2 of guanine leads to a cyclic gamma-HOPdG adduct that presents a block to normal replication. We show here that yeast Rev1 incorporates the correct nucleotide C opposite a permanently ring-closed form of gamma-HOPdG (PdG) with nearly the same efficiency as opposite an undamaged G. The structural basis of this action lies in the eviction of the PdG adduct from the Rev1 active site, and the pairing of incoming dCTP with a "surrogate" arginine residue. We also show that yeast Polzeta can carry out the subsequent extension reaction. Together, our studies reveal how the exocyclic PdG adduct is accommodated in a DNA polymerase active site, and they show that the combined action of Rev1 and Polzeta provides for accurate and efficient synthesis through this potentially carcinogenic DNA lesion.

Abstract
Current data suggest that DNA-peptide crosslinks are formed in cellular DNA as likely intermediates in the repair of DNA-protein crosslinks. In addition, a number of naturally occurring peptides are known to efficiently conjugate with DNA, particularly through the formation of Schiff-base complexes at aldehydic DNA adducts and abasic DNA sites. Since the potential role of DNA-peptide crosslinks in promoting mutagenesis is not well elucidated, here we report on the mutagenic properties of Schiff-base-mediated DNA-peptide crosslinks in mammalian cells. Site-specific DNA-peptide crosslinks were generated by covalently trapping a lysine-tryptophan-lysine-lysine peptide to the N(6) position of deoxyadenosine (dA) or the N(2) position of deoxyguanosine (dG) via the aldehydic forms of acrolein-derived DNA adducts (gamma-hydroxypropano-dA or gamma-hydroxypropano-dG, respectively). In order to evaluate the potential of DNA-peptide crosslinks to promote mutagenesis, we inserted the modified oligodeoxynucleotides into a single-stranded pMS2 shuttle vector, replicated these vectors in simian kidney (COS-7) cells and tested the progeny DNAs for mutations. Mutagenic analyses revealed that at the site of modification, the gamma-hydroxypropano-dA-mediated crosslink induced mutations at only approximately 0.4%. In contrast, replication bypass of the gamma-hydroxypropano-dG-mediated crosslink resulted in mutations at the site of modification at an overall frequency of approximately 8.4%. Among the types of mutations observed, single base substitutions were most common, with a prevalence of G to T transversions. Interestingly, while covalent attachment of lysine-tryptophan-lysine-lysine at gamma-hydroxypropano-dG caused an increase in mutation frequencies relative to gamma-hydroxypropano-dG, similar modification of gamma-hydroxypropano-dA resulted in decreased levels of mutations. Thus, certain DNA-peptide crosslinks can be mutagenic, and their potential to cause mutations depends on the site of peptide attachment. We propose that in order to avoid error-prone replication, proteolytic degradation of proteins covalently attached to DNA and subsequent steps of DNA repair should be tightly coordinated.

Abstract
3-Methyl adenine (3meA), a minor-groove DNA lesion, presents a strong block to synthesis by replicative DNA polymerases (Pols). To elucidate the means by which replication through this DNA lesion is mediated in eukaryotic cells, here we carry out genetic studies in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae treated with the alkylating agent methyl methanesulfonate. From the studies presented here, we infer that replication through the 3meA lesion in yeast cells can be mediated by the action of three Rad6-Rad18-dependent pathways that include translesion synthesis (TLS) by Pol(eta) or -zeta and an Mms2-Ubc13-Rad5-dependent pathway which presumably operates via template switching. We also express human Pols iota and kappa in yeast cells and show that they too can mediate replication through the 3meA lesion in yeast cells, indicating a high degree of evolutionary conservation of the mechanisms that control TLS in yeast and human cells. We discuss these results in the context of previous observations that have been made for the roles of Pols eta, iota, and kappa in promoting replication through the minor-groove N2-dG adducts.

Abstract
Malondialdehyde (MDA) and its reactive equivalent, base propenal, are products of oxidative damage to lipids and DNA, respectively; they are mutagenic in bacterial and mammalian systems, and MDA is carcinogenic in rats. MDA adducts of deoxyguanosine (M1dG), deoxyadenosine (OPdA), and deoxycytidine (OPdC) have been characterized. We have developed site-specific syntheses of M1dG and OPdA adducted oligonucleotides that rely on a postsynthetic modification strategy. This work provides an alternative route to the M1dG adducted oligonucleotide and, to date, the only viable strategy for the site-specific synthesis of OPdA-modified oligonucleotides. The stability of the modified oligonucleotides was examined by UV thermal melting studies (Tm). In contrast to the M1dG adduct, OPdA caused very little change in the Tm.

Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB) epoxide forms an unstable N7 guanine adduct in DNA. The adduct undergoes base-catalyzed ring opening to give a highly persistent formamidopyrimidine (FAPY) adduct which exists as a mixture of forms. Acid hydrolysis of the FAPY adduct gives the FAPY base which exists in two separable but interconvertible forms that have been assigned by various workers as functional, positional, or conformational isomers. Recently, this structural question became important when one of the two major FAPY species in DNA was found to be potently mutagenic and the other a block to replication [Smela, M. E.; Hamm, M. L.; Henderson, P. T.; Harris, C. M.; Harris, T. M.; Essigmann, J. M. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2002, 99, 6655-6660]. NMR studies carried out on the AFB-FAPY bases and deoxynucleoside 3',5'-dibutyrates now establish that the separable FAPY bases and nucleosides are diastereomeric N5 formyl derivatives involving axial asymmetry around the congested pyrimidine C5-N5 bond. Anomerization of the protected beta-deoxyriboside was not observed, but in the absence of acyl protection, both anomerization and furanosyl --> pyranosyl ring expansion occurred. In oligodeoxynucleotides, two equilibrating FAPY species, separable by HPLC, are assigned as anomers. The form normally present in duplex DNA is the mutagenic species. It has previously been assigned as the beta anomer by NMR (Mao, H.; Deng, Z. W.; Wang, F.; Harris, T. M.; Stone, M. P. Biochemistry 1998, 37, 4374-4387). In single-stranded environments the dominant species is the beta anomer; it is a block to replication.

Abstract
The X-ray crystal structure of human DNA polymerase iota (Poliota) has shown that it differs from all known Pols in its dependence upon Hoogsteen base pairing for synthesizing DNA. Hoogsteen base pairing provides an elegant mechanism for synthesizing DNA opposite minor-groove adducts that present a severe block to synthesis by replicative DNA polymerases. Germane to this problem, a variety of DNA adducts form at the N2 minor-groove position of guanine. Previously, we have shown that proficient and error-free replication through the gamma-HOPdG (gamma-hydroxy-1,N2-propano-2'-deoxyguanosine) adduct, which is formed from the reaction of acrolein with the N2 of guanine, is mediated by the sequential action of human Poliota and Polkappa, in which Poliota incorporates the nucleotide opposite the lesion site and Polkappa carries out the subsequent extension reaction. To test the general applicability of these observations to other adducts formed at the N2 position of guanine, here we examine the proficiency of human Poliota and Polkappa to synthesize past stereoisomers of trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-deoxyguanosine (HNE-dG). Even though HNE- and acrolein-modified dGs share common structural features, due to their increased size and other structural differences, HNE adducts are potentially more blocking for replication than gamma-HOPdG. We show here that the sequential action of Poliota and Polkappa promotes efficient and error-free synthesis through the HNE-dG adducts, in which Poliota incorporates the nucleotide opposite the lesion site and Polkappa performs the extension reaction.

Abstract
The interstrand N2,N2-dG DNA cross-linking chemistry of the acrolein-derived gamma-OH-1,N2-propanodeoxyguanosine (gamma-OH-PdG) adduct in the 5'-CpG-3' sequence was monitored within a dodecamer duplex by NMR spectroscopy, in situ, using a series of site-specific 13C- and 15N-edited experiments. At equilibrium 40% of the DNA was cross-linked, with the carbinolamine form of the cross-link predominating. The cross-link existed in equilibrium with the non-crosslinked N2-(3-oxo-propyl)-dG aldehyde and its geminal diol hydrate. The ratio of aldehyde/diol increased at higher temperatures. The 1,N2-dG cyclic adduct was not detected. Molecular modeling suggested that the carbinolamine linkage should be capable of maintaining Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding at both of the tandem C x G base pairs. In contrast, dehydration of the carbinolamine cross-link to an imine (Schiff base) cross-link, or cyclization of the latter to form a pyrimidopurinone cross-link, was predicted to require disruption of Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding at one or both of the tandem cross-linked C x G base pairs. When the gamma-OH-PdG adduct contained within the 5'-CpG-3' sequence was instead annealed into duplex DNA opposite T, a mixture of the 1,N2-dG cyclic adduct, the aldehyde, and the diol, but no cross-link, was observed. With this mismatched duplex, reaction with the tetrapeptide KWKK formed DNA-peptide cross-links efficiently. When annealed opposite dA, gamma-OH-PdG remained as the 1,N2-dG cyclic adduct although transient epimerization was detected by trapping with the peptide KWKK. The results provide a rationale for the stability of interstrand cross-links formed by acrolein and perhaps other alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes. These sequence-specific carbinolamine cross-links are anticipated to interfere with DNA replication and contribute to acrolein-mediated genotoxicity.

Abstract
The crotonaldehyde- and acetaldehyde-derived R- and S-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-1,N2-propanodeoxyguanosine adducts were monitored in single-stranded and duplex oligodeoxynucleotides using NMR spectroscopy. In both instances, the cis and trans diastereomers of the alpha-CH3 and gamma-OH groups underwent slow exchange, with the trans diastereomers being favored. In single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides, the aldehyde intermediates were not detected spectroscopically, but their presence was revealed through the formation of N-terminal conjugates with the tetrapeptide KWKK. When annealed into 5'-d(GCTAGCXAGTCC)-3'.5'-d(GGACTCYCTAGC)-3' containing the 5'-CpG-3' sequence context (X = R- or S-alpha-CH3-gamma-13C-OH-PdG; Y = 15N2-dG) at pH 7, partial opening of the R- or S-alpha-CH3-gamma-13C-OH-PdG adducts to the corresponding N2-(3-oxo-1-methyl-propyl)-dG aldehydes was observed at temperatures below the T(m) of the duplexes. These aldehydes equilibrated with their geminal diol hydrates; higher temperatures favored the aldehydes. When annealed opposite T, the S-alpha-CH3-gamma-13C-OH-PdG adduct was stable. At 37 degrees C, an interstrand DNA cross-link was observed spectroscopically only for the R-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-PdG adduct. Molecular modeling predicted that the interstrand cross-link formed by the R-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-PdG adduct introduced less disruption into the duplex structure than did the cross-link arising from the S-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-PdG adduct, due to differing orientations of the R- and S-CH3 groups. Modeling also predicted that the alpha-methyl group of the aldehyde arising from the R-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-PdG adduct is oriented in the 3'-direction in the minor groove, facilitating cross-linking. In contrast, the alpha-methyl group of the aldehyde arising from the S-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-PdG adduct is oriented in the 5'-direction within the minor groove, potentially hindering cross-linking. NMR revealed that for the R-alpha-CH3-gamma-OH-PdG adduct, the carbinolamine form of the cross-link was favored in duplex DNA with the imine (Schiff base) form of the cross-link remaining below the level of spectroscopic detection. Molecular modeling predicted that the carbinolamine linkage maintained Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding at both of the tandem C.G base pairs. Dehydration of the carbinolamine cross-link to an imine, or cyclization of the latter to form a pyrimidopurinone cross-link, required disruption of Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding at one or both of the cross-linked base pairs.

Abstract
The reaction of DNA with certain bis-electrophiles such as chlorooxirane and chloroacetaldehyde produces etheno adducts. These lesions are highly miscoding, and some of the chemical agents that produce them have been shown to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals and in humans. An intermediate in the formation of 1,N2-ethenoguanine is 6-hydroxy-3,5,6,7-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,2-a]purin-9-one (6-hydroxyethanoguanine), which undergoes conversion to the etheno adduct. The chemical properties and miscoding potential of the hydroxyethano adduct have not been previously studied. A synthesis of the hydroxyethano-adducted nucleoside was developed, and it was site specifically incorporated into oligonucleotides. This adduct had a half-life of between 24 and 48 h at neutral pH and 25 degrees C at the nucleoside and oligonucleotide levels. The miscoding potential of the hydroxyethano adduct was examined by primer extension reactions with the DNA polymerases Dpo4 and pol T7-, and the results were compared to the corresponding etheno-adducted oligonucleotide. Dpo4 preferentially incorporated dATP opposite the hydroxyethano adduct and dGTP opposite the etheno adduct; pol T7- preferentially incorporated dATP opposite the etheno adduct while dGTP and dATP were incorporated opposite the hydroxyethano adduct with nearly equal catalytic efficiencies. Collectively, these results indicate that the hydroxyethano adduct has a sufficient lifetime and miscoding properties to contribute to the mutagenic spectrum of chlorooxirane and related genotoxic species.

Abstract
Acrolein, an alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde, is generated in vivo as the end product of lipid peroxidation and from oxidation of polyamines. The reaction of acrolein with the N2 group of guanine in DNA leads to the formation of a cyclic adduct, gamma-hydroxy-1,N2-propano-2'-deoxyguanosine (gamma-HOPdG). Previously, we have shown that proficient replication through the gamma-HOPdG adduct can be mediated by the sequential action of human DNA polymerases (Pols) iota and kappa, in which Poliota incorporates either pyrimidine opposite gamma-HOPdG, but Polkappa extends only from the cytosine. Since gamma-HOPdG can adopt either a ring-closed cyclic form or a ring-opened form in DNA, to better understand the mechanisms that Pols iota and kappa employ to promote replication through this lesion, we have examined the ability of these polymerases to replicate through the structural analogs of gamma-HOPdG that are permanently either ring closed or ring opened. Our studies with these model adducts show that whereas the ring-opened form of gamma-HOPdG is not inhibitory to synthesis by human Pols eta, iota, or kappa, only Poliota is able to incorporate nucleotides opposite the ring-closed form, which is known to adopt a syn conformation in DNA. From these studies, we infer that (i) Pols eta, iota, and kappa have the ability to proficiently replicate through minor-groove DNA lesions that do not perturb the Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding of the template base with the incoming nucleotide, and (ii) Poliota can accommodate a minor-groove-adducted template purine which adopts a syn conformation in DNA and forms a Hoogsteen base pair with the incoming nucleotide.

Abstract
The three oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODNs) a-c, having the telomeric repeat d(TTAGGG)(4) sequence and incorporating gamma-hydroxypropano deoxyguanosine at different positions, were synthesized. Gel electrophoresis and CD analyses indicated that the ODNs assume monomolecular quadruplex structures in Na+ and in K+ buffers. The T(m) values, obtained by CD melting experiments, showed that the presence of the acrolein-dG adduct into the ODN b decreases the thermal stability of the monomolecular quadruplex structure in Na+ solution, whereas for a and c no significant effect could be detected in the same experimental conditions. On the contrary, all ODNs a-d show the same behaviour in K+ buffer. These findings are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Six oligonucleotides with carcinogen derivatives bound at the N2 atom of deoxyguanosine were prepared, including adducts derived from butadiene, acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and styrene, and examined for effects on the replicative enzymes bacteriophage DNA polymerase T7- (T7-) and HIV-1 reverse transcriptase for comparison with previous work on smaller DNA adducts. All of these adducts strongly blocked dCTP incorporation opposite the adducts. dATP was preferentially incorporated opposite the acrolein and crotonaldehyde adducts, and dTTP incorporation was preferred at the butadiene- and styrene-derived adducts. Steady-state kinetic analysis indicated that the reduced catalytic efficiency with adducted DNA involved both an increased Km and attenuated kcat. Fluorescence estimates of Kd and pre-steady-state kinetic measurements of koff showed no significantly decreased affinity of T7- with the adducted oligonucleotides or the dNTP. Pre-steady-state kinetics showed no burst phase kinetics for dNTP incorporation with any of the modified oligonucleotides. These results indicate that phosphodiester bond formation or a conformational change of the enzyme.DNA complex is rate-limiting instead of the step involving release of the oligonucleotide. Thio elemental effects for dNTP incorporation were generally relatively small but variable, indicating that the presence of adducts may sometimes make phosphodiester bond formation rate-limiting but not always.

Abstract
Rev1, a member of the Y family of DNA polymerases, functions in lesion bypass together with DNA polymerase zeta (Pol zeta). Rev1 is a highly specialized enzyme in that it incorporates only a C opposite template G. While Rev1 plays an indispensable structural role in Pol zeta-dependent lesion bypass, the role of its DNA synthetic activity in lesion bypass has remained unclear. Since interactions of DNA polymerases with the DNA minor groove contribute to the nearly equivalent efficiencies and fidelities of nucleotide incorporation opposite each of the four template bases, here we examine the possibility that unlike other DNA polymerases, Rev1 does not come into close contact with the minor groove of the incipient base pair, and that enables it to incorporate a C opposite the N(2)-adducted guanines in DNA. To test this idea, we examined whether Rev1 could incorporate a C opposite the gamma-hydroxy-1,N(2)-propano-2'deoxyguanosine DNA minor-groove adduct, which is formed from the reaction of acrolein with the N(2) of guanine. Acrolein, an alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde, is generated in vivo as the end product of lipid peroxidation and from other oxidation reactions. We show here that Rev1 efficiently incorporates a C opposite this adduct from which Pol zeta subsequently extends, thereby completing the lesion bypass reaction. Based upon these observations, we suggest that an important role of the Rev1 DNA synthetic activity in lesion bypass is to incorporate a C opposite the various N(2)-guanine DNA minor-groove adducts that form in DNA.

Abstract
DNA polymerase iota (Poliota) is a member of the Y family of DNA polymerases, which promote replication through DNA lesions. The role of Poliota in lesion bypass, however, has remained unclear. Poliota is highly unusual in that it incorporates nucleotides opposite different template bases with very different efficiencies and fidelities. Since interactions of DNA polymerases with the DNA minor groove provide for the nearly equivalent efficiencies and fidelities of nucleotide incorporation opposite each of the four template bases, we considered the possibility that Poliota differs from other DNA polymerases in not being as sensitive to distortions of the minor groove at the site of the incipient base pair and that this enables it to incorporate nucleotides opposite highly distorting minor-groove DNA adducts. To check the validity of this idea, we examined whether Poliota could incorporate nucleotides opposite the gamma-HOPdG adduct, which is formed from an initial reaction of acrolein with the N(2) of guanine. We show here that Poliota incorporates a C opposite this adduct with nearly the same efficiency as it does opposite a nonadducted template G residue. The subsequent extension step, however, is performed by Polkappa, which efficiently extends from the C incorporated opposite the adduct. Based upon these observations, we suggest that an important biological role of Poliota and Polkappa is to act sequentially to carry out the efficient and accurate bypass of highly distorting minor-groove DNA adducts of the purine bases.

Abstract
trans-4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a major peroxidation product of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The reaction of HNE with DNA gives four diastereomeric 1,N(2)-gamma-hydroxypropano adducts of deoxyguanosine; background levels of these adducts have been detected in animal tissue. Stereospecific syntheses of these four adducts at the nucleoside level have been accomplished. In addition, a versatile strategy for their site-specific incorporation into oligonucleotides has been developed. These adducts are destabilizing as measured by melting temperature when compared to an unadducted strand. The thermal destablization of the adducted 12-mers ranged from 5 to 16 degrees C and is dependent on the absolute stereochemistry of the adduct. The HNE adducts were also examined for their ability to form interstrand DNA-DNA cross-links when incorporated into a CpG sequence. We find that only one of the HNE stereoisomers formed interstrand DNA-DNA cross-links.
