Abstract
6-Nitrochrysene (6-NC), the most potent carcinogen evaluated by the newborn mouse assay, is metabolically activated by nitroreduction and a combination of ring oxidation and nitroreduction pathways. The nitroreduction pathway yields three major DNA adducts: at the C8 and N2 positions of 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG), N-(dG-8-yl)-6-AC and 5-(dG-N2-yl)-6-AC, and at the C8 position of 2'-deoxyadenosine (dA), N-(dA-8-yl)-6-AC. A nucleotide excision repair assay demonstrated that N-(dA-8-yl)-6-AC is repaired much more slowly than many other bulky DNA adducts, including the other DNA adducts formed by 6-NC. But neither the total synthesis nor evaluation of other biological activities of this dA adduct has ever been reported. Herein, we report a convenient synthesis of the 6-NC-derived dA adduct by employing the Buchwald-Hartwig coupling strategy, which provided a high yield of the protected N-(dA-8-yl)-6-AC. The deprotected nucleoside showed syn conformational preference by NMR spectroscopy. Following DMT protection of the 5'-hydroxyl, N-(dA-8-yl)-6-AC was converted to its 3'-phosphoramidite, which was used to prepare oligonucleotides containing a single N-(dA-8-yl)-6-AC adduct. Circular dichroism spectra of the adducted duplex showed only a slight departure from the B-DNA helix profile of the control duplex. The 15-mer N-(dA-8-yl)-6-AC oligonucleotide was used to construct a single-stranded plasmid vector containing a single adduct, which was replicated in Escherichia coli. Viability of the adducted construct was ∼60% of the control, indicating slower translesion synthesis of the adduct, which increased to nearly 90% upon induction of the SOS functions. Without SOS, the mutation frequency (MF) of the adduct was 5.2%, including 2.9% targeted and 2.3% semi-targeted mutations. With SOS, the targeted MF increased 3-fold to 9.0%, whereas semi-targeted mutation increased only marginally to 3.2%. The major type of targeted mutation was A*→G in both uninduced and SOS-induced cells.

Abstract
The contribution of diesel exhaust to atmospheric pollution is a major concern for public health, especially in terms of occurrence of lung cancers. The present study aimed at addressing the toxic effects of a repeated exposure to these emissions in an animal study performed under strictly controlled conditions. Rats were repeatedly exposed to the exhaust of diesel engine. Parameters such as the presence of a particle filter or the use of gasoil containing rapeseed methyl ester were investigated. Various biological parameters were monitored in the lungs to assess the toxic and genotoxic effects of the exposure. First, a transcriptomic analysis showed that some pathways related to DNA repair and cell cycle were affected to a limited extent by diesel but even less by biodiesel. In agreement with occurrence of a limited genotoxic stress in the lungs of diesel-exposed animals, small induction of γ-H2AX and acrolein adducts was observed but not of bulky adducts and 8-oxodGuo. Unexpected results were obtained in the study of the effect of the particle filter. Indeed, exhausts collected downstream of the particle filter led to a slightly higher induction of a series of genes than those collected upstream. This result was in agreement with the formation of acrolein adducts and γH2AX. On the contrary, induction of oxidative stress remained very limited since only SOD was found to be induced and only when rats were exposed to biodiesel exhaust collected upstream of the particle filter. Parameters related to telomeres were identical in all groups. In summary, our results point to a limited accumulation of damage in lungs following repeated exposure to diesel exhausts when modern engines and relevant fuels are used. Yet, a few significant effects are still observed, mostly after the particle filter, suggesting a remaining toxicity associated with the gaseous or nano-particular phases.

Abstract
Translesion synthesis (TLS) of the N(2)-2'-deoxyguanosine (dG-N(2)-IQ) adduct of the carcinogen 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) was investigated in human embryonic kidney 293T cells by replicating plasmid constructs in which the adduct was individually placed at each guanine (G1, G2, or G3) of the NarI sequence (5'-CG1G2CG3CC-3'). TLS efficiency was 38%, 29%, and 25% for the dG-N(2)-IQ located at G1, G2, and G3, respectively, which suggests that dG-N(2)-IQ is bypassed more efficiently by one or more DNA polymerases at G1 than at either G2 or G3. TLS efficiency was decreased 8-35% in cells with knockdown of pol η, pol κ, pol ι, pol ζ, or Rev1. Up to 75% reduction in TLS occurred when pol η, pol ζ, and Rev1 were simultaneously knocked down, suggesting that these three polymerases play important roles in dG-N(2)-IQ bypass. Mutation frequencies (MFs) of dG-N(2)-IQ at G1, G2, and G3 were 23%, 17%, and 11%, respectively, exhibiting a completely reverse trend of the previously reported MF of the C8-dG adduct of IQ (dG-C8-IQ), which is most mutagenic at G3 ( ( 2015 ) Nucleic Acids Res. 43 , 8340 - 8351 ). The major type of mutation induced by dG-N(2)-IQ was targeted G → T, as was reported for dG-C8-IQ. In each site, knockdown of pol κ resulted in an increase in MF, whereas MF was reduced when pol η, pol ι, pol ζ, or Rev1 was knocked down. The reduction in MF was most pronounced when pol η, pol ζ, and Rev1 were simultaneously knocked down and especially when the adduct was located at G3, where MF was reduced by 90%. We conclude that pol κ predominantly performs error-free TLS of the dG-N(2)-IQ adduct, whereas pols η, pol ζ, and Rev1 cooperatively carry out the error-prone TLS. However, in vitro experiments using yeast pol ζ and κ showed that the former was inefficient in full-length primer extension on dG-N(2)-IQ templates, whereas the latter was efficient in both error-free and error-prone extensions. We believe that the observed differences between the in vitro experiments using purified DNA polymerases, and the cellular results may arise from several factors including the crucial roles played by the accessory proteins in TLS.

Abstract
The roles of translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases in bypassing the C8-2'-deoxyguanosine adduct (dG-C8-IQ) formed by 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ), a highly mutagenic and carcinogenic heterocyclic amine found in cooked meats, were investigated. Three plasmid vectors containing the dG-C8-IQ adduct at the G1-, G2- or G3-positions of the NarI site (5'-G1G2CG3CC-3') were replicated in HEK293T cells. Fifty percent of the progeny from the G3 construct were mutants, largely G→T, compared to 18% and 24% from the G1 and G2 constructs, respectively. Mutation frequency (MF) of dG-C8-IQ was reduced by 38-67% upon siRNA knockdown of pol κ, whereas it was increased by 10-24% in pol η knockdown cells. When pol κ and pol ζ were simultaneously knocked down, MF of the G1 and G3 constructs was reduced from 18% and 50%, respectively, to <3%, whereas it was reduced from 24% to <1% in the G2 construct. In vitro TLS using yeast pol ζ showed that it can extend G3*:A pair more efficiently than G3*:C pair, but it is inefficient at nucleotide incorporation opposite dG-C8-IQ. We conclude that pol κ and pol ζ cooperatively carry out the majority of the error-prone TLS of dG-C8-IQ, whereas pol η is involved primarily in its error-free bypass.

Abstract
Abasic [apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP)] sites are the most common DNA damages, opposite which dAMP is frequently inserted (‘A-rule’) in Escherichia coli. Nucleotide insertion opposite the AP-site in eukaryotic cells depends on the assay system and the type of cells. Accordingly, a ‘C-rule’, ‘A-rule’, or the lack of specificity has been reported. DNA sequence context also modulates nucleotide insertion opposite AP-site. Herein, we have compared replication of tetrahydrofuran (Z), a stable analog of AP-site, in E. coli and human embryonic kidney 293T cells in two different sequences. The efficiency of translesion synthesis or viability of the AP-site construct in E. coli was less than 1%, but it was 7- to 8-fold higher in the GZGTC sequence than in the GTGZC sequence. The difference in viability increased even more in pol V-deficient strains. Targeted one-base deletions occurred in 63% frequency in the GZG and 68% frequency in GZC sequence, which dropped to 49% and 21%, respectively, upon induction of SOS. The full-length products with SOS primarily involved dAMP insertion opposite the AP-site, which occurred in 49% and 71% frequency, respectively, in the GZG and GZC sequence. dAMP insertion, largely carried out by pol V, was more efficient when the AP-site was a stronger replication block. In contrast to these results in E. coli, viability was 2 to 3 orders of magnitude higher in human cells, and the ‘A-rule’ was more rigidly followed. The AP-site in the GZG and GZC sequences gave 76% and 89%, respectively, Z→T substitutions. In human cells, targeted one-base deletion was undetectable, and dTMP>dCMP were the next preferred nucleotides inserted opposite Z. siRNA knockdown of Rev1 or pol ζ established that both these polymerases are vital for AP-site bypass, as demonstrated by 36–67% reduction in bypass efficiency. However, neither polymerase was indispensable, suggesting roles of additional DNA polymerases in AP-site bypass in human cells.

Abstract
Bulky DNA adducts are formed through the covalent attachment of aryl groups to the DNA nucleobases. Many of these adducts are known to possess conformational heterogeneity, which is responsible for the variety of mutagenic outcomes associated with these lesions. The present contribution reviews several conformational and mutagenic themes that are prevalent among the DNA adducts formed at the C8-site of the guanine nucleobase. The most important conclusions obtained (to date) from experiments are summarized including the anti/syn conformational preference of the adducts, their potential to inflict DNA mutations and mismatch stabilization, and their interactions with DNA polymerases and repair enzymes. Additionally, the unique role that computer calculations can play in understanding the structural properties of these adducts are highlighted.

Abstract
1-Nitropyrene (1-NP), a mutagen and potential carcinogen, is the most abundant nitro polyaromatic hydrocarbon in diesel exhaust, which reacts with DNA to form predominantly N-(deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-1-aminopyrene (dG(AP)). If not repaired, this DNA lesion is presumably bypassed in vivo by any of human Y-family DNA polymerases kappa (hPolκ), iota (hPolι), eta (hPolη), and Rev1 (hRev1). Our running start assays demonstrated that each of these enzymes was indeed capable of traversing a site-specifically placed dG(AP) on a synthetic DNA template but that hRev1 was stopped after lesion bypass. The time required to bypass 50% of the dG(AP) sites (t(50)(bypass)) encountered by hPolη, hPolκ, and hPolι was determined to be 2.5 s, 4.1 s, and 106.5 s, respectively. The efficiency order of catalyzing translesion synthesis of dG(AP) (hPolη > hPolκ > hPolι ≫ hRev1) is the same as the order for these human Y-family enzymes to elongate undamaged DNA. Although hPolη bypassed dG(AP) efficiently, replication by both hPolκ and hPolι was strongly stalled at the lesion site and at a site immediately downstream from dG(AP). By employing presteady state kinetic methods, a kinetic basis was established for polymerase pausing at these DNA template sites. Besides efficiency of bypass, the fidelity of those low-fidelity polymerases at these pause sites was also significantly decreased. Thus, if the translesion DNA synthesis of dG(AP)in vivo is catalyzed by a human Y-family DNA polymerase, e.g., hPolη, the process is certainly mutagenic.

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
γ-Radiation generates a variety of complex lesions in DNA, including the G[8,5-Me]T intrastrand cross-link in which C8 of guanine is covalently linked to the 5-methyl group of the 3'-thymine. We have investigated the toxicity and mutagenesis of this lesion by replicating a G[8,5-Me]T-modified plasmid in Escherichia coli with specific DNA polymerase knockouts. Viability was very low in a strain lacking pol II, pol IV, and pol V, the three SOS-inducible DNA polymerases, indicating that translesion synthesis is conducted primarily by these DNA polymerases. In the single-polymerase knockout strains, viability was the lowest in a pol V-deficient strain, which suggests that pol V is most efficient in bypassing this lesion. Most mutations were single-base substitutions or deletions, though a small population of mutants carrying two point mutations at or near the G[8,5-Me]T cross-link was also detected. Mutations in the progeny occurred at the cross-linked bases as well as at bases near the lesion site, but the mutational spectrum varied on the basis of the identity of the DNA polymerase that was knocked out. Mutation frequency was the lowest in a strain that lacked the three SOS DNA polymerases. We determined that pol V is required for most targeted G → T transversions, whereas pol IV is required for the targeted T deletions. Our results suggest that pol V and pol IV compete to carry out error-prone bypass of the G[8,5-Me]T cross-link.

Abstract
The genome and its nucleotide precursor pool are under sustained attack by radiation, reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, chemical carcinogens, hydrolytic reactions, and certain drugs. As a result, a large and heterogeneous population of damaged nucleotides forms in all cells. Some of the lesions are repaired, but for those that remain, there can be serious biological consequences. For example, lesions that form in DNA can lead to altered gene expression, mutation, and death. This perspective examines systems developed over the past 20 years to study the biological properties of single DNA lesions.

Abstract
The mutagenesis of the major DNA adduct N-(deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-1-aminopyrene (C8-AP-dG) formed by 1-nitropyrene was compared with the analogous C8-dG adducts of 2-aminofluorene (AF) and N-acetyl-2-aminofluorene (AAF) in simian kidney (COS-7) cells. The DNA sequence chosen for this comparison contained 5'-CCATC GCTACC-3' that has been used for solution NMR investigations. The structural and conformational differences among these lesions are well-established [Patel, D. J., Mao, B., Gu, Z., Hingerty, B. E., Gorin, A., Basu, A. K., and Broyde,S. (1998) NMR solution structures of covalent aromatic amine-DNA adducts and their mutagenic relevance. Chem. Res. Toxicol. 11, 391- 407.]. Accordingly, we found a notable difference in the viability of the progeny, which showed that the AAF adduct was most toxic and that the AF adduct was least toxic, with the AP adduct exhibiting intermediate toxicity. However, analysis of the progeny showed that translesion synthesis was predominantly error-free. Only low-level mutations (<3%) were detected with G-->T as the dominant type of mutation by all three DNA adducts. When C8-AP-dG was evaluated in a repetitive 5'-CGC GCG-3' sequence, higher mutational frequency ( approximately 8%) was observed. Again, G-->T was the major type of mutations in simian kidney cells, even though in bacteria CpG deletions predominate in this sequence [Hilario, P., Yan, S., Hingerty, B. E., Broyde, S., and Basu, A. K. (2002) Comparative mutagenesis of the C8-guanine adducts of 1-nitropyrene,and 1,6- and 1,8-dinitropyrene in a CpG repeat sequence: A slipped frameshift intermediate model for dinucleotide deletion. J. Biol. Chem. 277, 45068- 45074.]. Mutagenesis of C8-AP-dG in a 12-mer containing the local DNA sequence around codon 273 of the p53 tumor suppressor gene, where the adduct was located at the second base of this codon, was also investigated. In this 5'-GTGC GTGTTTGT-3' site, the mutations were slightly lower but not very different from the progeny derived from the 5'-CGC GCG-3' sequence. However, the mutational frequency increased by more than 50% when the 5'-C to the adduct was replaced with a 5-methylcytosine (5-MeC). With a 5-MeC, the most notable change in mutation was the enhancement of G-->A, which occurred 2.5 times relative to a 5'-C. The C8-AP-dG adduct in codon 273 dodecamer sequence with a 5'-C or 5-MeC was also evaluated in human embryonic kidney (293T) cells. Similar to COS cells, targeted mutations doubled with a 5-MeC 5' to the adduct. Except for an increase in G-->C transversions, the results in 293T were similar to that in COS cells. We conclude that C8-AP-dG mutagenesis depends on the type of cell in which it is replicated, the neighboring DNA sequence, and the methylation status of the 5'-C.

Abstract
Acridines are well-known as compounds that intercalate noncovalently between DNA base pairs and induce +/-1 frameshift mutations at sites of monotonous repeats of a single base. Reactive derivatives of acridines, including acridine mustards and nitroacridines, form covalent adducts in DNA and exhibit mutagenic properties different from the simple intercalators. We compared the frameshift mutagenicity of the cancer chemotherapy drug nitracrine (1-nitro-9-(3'-dimethylaminopropylamino)-acridine), its des-nitro counterpart 9-(3'-dimethylaminopropylamino)-acridine (DAPA), and its 2-, 3-, and 4-nitro isomers (2-, 3-, and 4-nitro-DAPA) in the lacZ reversion assay in Escherichia coli. DAPA is a simple intercalator, much like the widely studied 9-aminoacridine. It most strongly induced +/-1 frameshift mutations in runs of guanine residues and more weakly induced -1 frameshifts in a run of adenine residues. A nitro group in the 1, 3, or 4 position of DAPA reduced the yield of +/-1 frameshift mutations. DAPA weakly induced -2 frameshifts in an alternating CG sequence. In contrast, nitracrine and its 3-nitro isomer resembled the 3-nitroacridine Entozon in effectively inducing -2 frameshift mutations. The 2- and 4-nitro isomers were less effective than the 1- and 3-nitro compounds in -2 frameshift mutagenesis. The results are interpreted with respect to intercalation, steric interactions, effects of base strength on DNA binding, enzymatic processing, and a slipped mispairing model of frameshift mutagenesis.

Roles of replicative and specialized DNA polymerases in frameshift mutagenesis: mutability of Salmonella typhimurium strains lacking one or all of SOS-inducible DNA polymerases to 26 chemicals.

Abstract
Progression of DNA replication is occasionally blocked by endogenous and exogenous DNA damage. To circumvent the stalling of DNA replication, cells possess a variety of specialized DNA polymerases that replicate through DNA damage. Salmonella typhimurium strain TA1538 has six DNA polymerases and four of them are encoded by damage-inducible SOS genes, i.e. polB(ST) (pol II), dinB(ST) (pol IV), umuDC(ST) (pol V) and samAB. The strain has been used for the detection of a variety of chemical mutagens because of the high sensitivity to -2 frameshift occurring in CGCGCGCG sequence. To assign the role of each DNA polymerase in the frameshift mutagenesis, we have constructed the derivatives lacking one or all of SOS-inducible DNA polymerases and examined the mutability to 26 chemical mutagens. Interestingly, the chemicals could be categorized into four classes: class I whose mutagenicity was reduced by the deletion of dinB(ST) (1-aminoanthracene and other four chemicals); class II whose mutagenicity was reduced by the deletion of either dinB(ST) or umuDC(ST) plus samAB (7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and other three chemicals); class III whose mutagenicity largely depended on the presence of umuDC(ST) plus samAB (1-N-6-azabenzo[a]pyrene and other three chemicals) and class IV whose mutagenicity was not reduced by deletion of any of the genes encoding SOS-inducible DNA polymerases (Glu-P-1 and other 12 chemicals). Deletion of polB(ST) reduced by 30-60% the mutagenicity of six chemicals of classes II and III. These results suggest that multiple DNA polymerases including the replicative DNA polymerase, i.e. DNA polymerase III holoenzyme, play important roles in chemically induced -2 frameshift and also that different sets of DNA polymerases are engaged in the translesion bypass of different DNA lesions.

Abstract
Nitropyrenes are widespread in the environment due to mainly diesel engine emissions. Dinitropyrenes (DNPs), especially 1,8-dinitropyrene (1,8-DNP) and 1,6-dinitropyrene (1,6-DNP), are much more potent mutagens than other nitropyrenes. The carcinogenicity of 1,8-DNP and 1,6-DNP is stronger than 1,3-dinitropyrene (1,3-DNP). It is considered that adduct formation after metabolic activation plays an important role in the expression of carcinogenicity of nitropyrenes. However, Djuric et al. [(1993) Cancer Lett.] reported that oxidative DNA damage was also found as well as adduct formation in rats treated with 1,6-DNP. We investigated oxidative DNA damage by DNPs in the presence of NAD(P)H-cytochrome P450 reductase using 32P-5'-end-labeled DNA. After P450 reductase treatment, DNPs induced Cu(II)-mediated DNA damage in the presence of NAD(P)H. The intensity of DNA damage by 1,8-DNP or 1,6-DNP was stronger than 1,3-DNP. We also examined synthetic 1-nitro-8-nitrosopyrene (1,8-NNOP) and 1-nitro-6-nitrosopyrene (1,6-NNOP) as one of the metabolites of 1,8-DNP and 1,6-DNP, respectively, to find that 1,8-NNOP and 1,6-NNOP induced Cu(II)-mediated DNA damage in the presence of NAD(P)H but untreated DNPs did not. In both cases of P450 reductase-treated DNPs and NNOPs, catalase and a Cu(I) specific chelator attenuated DNA damage, indicating the involvement of H2O2 and Cu(I). Using a Clarke oxygen electrode, oxygen consumption by the reaction of NNOPs with NAD(P)H and Cu(II) was measured to find that NNOP was nonenzymatically reduced by NAD(P)H and that the addition of Cu(II) promoted the redox cycle. Therefore, these results suggest that DNPs are enzymatically reduced to NNOPs via nitro radical anion and that NNOPs are further reduced nonenzymatically by NAD(P)H. Subsequently, autoxidation of nitro radical anion and the reduced form of NNOP occurs, resulting in O2- generation and DNA damage. We conclude that oxidative DNA damage in addition to DNA adduct formation may play important roles in the carcinogenesis of DNPs via their metabolites.
