Karwowski BT. The Influence of Clustered DNA Damage Containing Iz/Oz and OXOdG on the Charge Transfer through the Double Helix: A Theoretical Study. Molecules 2024; 29:2754. [PMID: 38930820 PMCID: PMC11206643 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29122754] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The genome-the source of life and platform of evolution-is continuously exposed to harmful factors, both extra- and intra-cellular. Their activity causes different types of DNA damage, with approximately 80 different types of lesions having been identified so far. In this paper, the influence of a clustered DNA damage site containing imidazolone (Iz) or oxazolone (Oz) and 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (OXOdG) on the charge transfer through the double helix as well as their electronic properties were investigated. To this end, the structures of oligo-Iz, d[A1Iz2A3OXOG4A5]*d[T5C4T3C2T1], and oligo-Oz, d[A1Oz2A3OXOG4A5]*d[T5C4T3C2T1], were optimized at the M06-2X/6-D95**//M06-2X/sto-3G level of theory in the aqueous phase using the ONIOM methodology; all the discussed energies were obtained at the M06-2X/6-31++G** level of theory. The non-equilibrated and equilibrated solvent-solute interactions were taken into consideration. The following results were found: (A) In all the discussed cases, OXOdG showed a higher predisposition to radical cation formation, and B) the excess electron migration toward Iz and Oz was preferred. However, in the case of oligo-Oz, the electron transfer from Oz2 to complementary C4 was noted during vertical to adiabatic anion relaxation, while for oligo-Iz, it was settled exclusively on the Iz2 moiety. The above was reflected in the charge transfer rate constant, vertical/adiabatic ionization potential, and electron affinity energy values, as well as the charge and spin distribution. It can be postulated that imidazolone moiety formation within the CDL ds-oligo structure and its conversion to oxazolone can significantly influence the charge migration process, depending on the C2 carbon hybridization sp2 or sp3. The above can confuse the single DNA damage recognition and removal processes, cause an increase in mutagenesis, and harm the effectiveness of anticancer therapy.

Abstract
5-Halouracil, which is a DNA base analog in which the methyl group at the C5 position of thymine is replaced with a halogen atom, has been used in studies of DNA damage. In DNA strands, the uracil radical generated from 5-halouracil causes DNA damage via a hydrogen-abstraction reaction. We analyzed the photoreaction of 5-halouracil in various DNA structures and revealed that the reaction is DNA structure-dependent. In this review, we summarize the results of the analysis of the reactivity of 5-halouracil in various DNA local structures. Among the 5-halouracil molecules, 5-bromouracil has been used as a probe in the analysis of photoinduced electron transfer through DNA. The analysis of groove-binder/DNA and protein/DNA complexes using a 5-bromouracil-based electron transfer system is also described.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Recently, it was revealed that uric acid is a photosensitizer of reactions of nucleosides on irradiation with UV light at wavelengths longer than 300 nm, and two products generated from 2′-deoxycytidine were identified. In the present study, UV reactions of acetylated derivatives of 2′-deoxyguansoine and 2′-deoxyadenosine were conducted and their products were identified.
Findings
Each reaction of 3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyguansoine or 3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyadenosine with UV light at wavelengths longer than 300 nm in the presence of uric acid generated several products. The products were separated by HPLC and identified by comparing UV and MS spectra of the products with previously reported values. The major products were spiroiminodihydantoin, imidazolone, and dehydro-iminoallantoin nucleosides for 3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyguansoine, and an adenine base and a formamidopyrimidine nucleoside for 3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyadenosine.
Conclusions
If these damages caused by uric acid with sunlight occur in DNA of skin cells, mutations may arise. We should pay attention to the genotoxicity of uric acid in terms of DNA damage to dGuo and dAdo sites mediated by sunlight.

Products of Oxidative Guanine Damage Form Base Pairs with Guanine. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21207645.

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
Halogenated quinones are a class of carcinogenic intermediates and newly identified chlorination disinfection byproducts in drinking water. We found recently that halogenated quinones could enhance the decomposition of hydroperoxides independent of transition-metal ions and formation of the novel quinone enoxy/ketoxy radicals. Here, we show that the major oxidation product was 2-amino-5-[(2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl)amino]-4H-imidazol-4-one (dIz) when the nucleoside 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) was treated with tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone (TCBQ) and t-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH). The formation of dIz was markedly inhibited by typical radical spin-trapping agents. Interestingly and unexpectedly, we found that the generated quinone enoxy radical played a critical role in dIz formation. Using [15N5]-8-oxodG, dIz was found to be produced either directly from dG or through the transient formation of 8-oxodG. Based on these data, we proposed that the production of dIz might be through an unusual haloquinone-enoxy radical-mediated mechanism. Analogous results were observed in the oxidation of ctDNA by TCBQ/t-BuOOH and when t-BuOOH was substituted by the endogenously generated physiologically relevant hydroperoxide 13S-hydroperoxy-9Z,11E-octadecadienoic acid. This is the first report that halogenated quinoid carcinogens and hydroperoxides can induce potent oxidation of dG to the more mutagenic product dIz via an unprecedented quinone-enoxy radical-mediated mechanism, which may partly explain their potential carcinogenicity.

Abstract
The chemistry of DNA and its repair selectivity control the influence of genomic oxidative stress on the development of serious disorders such as cancer and heart diseases. DNA is oxidized by endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vivo or in vitro as a result of high energy radiation, non-radiative metabolic processes, and other consequences of oxidative stress. Some oxidations of DNA and tumor suppressor gene p53 are thought to be mutagenic when not repaired. For example, site-specific oxidations of p53 tumor suppressor gene may lead to cancer-related mutations at the oxidation site codon. This review summarizes the research on the primary products of the most easily oxidized nucleobase guanine (G) when different oxidation methods are used. Guanine is by far the most oxidized DNA base. The primary initial oxidation product of guanine for most, but not all, pathways is 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). With an oxidation potential much lower than G, 8-oxoG is readily susceptible to further oxidation, and the products often depend on the oxidants. Specific products may control the types of subsequent mutations, but mediated by gene repair success. Site-specific oxidations of p53 tumor suppressor gene have been reported at known mutation hot spots, and the codon sites also depend on the type of oxidants. Modern methodologies using LC-MS/MS for codon specific detection and identification of oxidation sites are summarized. Future work aimed at understanding DNA oxidation in nucleosomes and interactions between DNA damage and repair is needed to provide a better picture of how cancer-related mutations arise.

Abstract
Guanine is the most readily oxidized of the four DNA bases, and guanine oxidation products cause G:C-T:A and G:C-C:G transversions through DNA replication. 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) causes G:C-T:A transversions but not G:C-C:G transversions, and is more readily oxidized than guanine. This review covers four major findings. (i) 2,2,4-Triamino-5(2H)-oxazolone (Oz) is produced from guanine and 8-oxoG under various oxidative conditions. Guanine is incorporated opposite Oz by DNA polymerases, except REV1. (ii) Several enzymes exhibit incision activity towards Oz. (iii) Since the redox potential of GG is lower than that of G, contiguous GG sequences are more readily oxidized by a one-electron oxidant than a single guanine, and OzOz is produced from GG in double-stranded DNA. Unlike most DNA polymerases, DNA polymerase ζ efficiently extends the primer up to full-length across OzOz. (iv) In quadruplex DNA, 3′-guanine is mainly damaged by one-electron oxidation in quadruplex DNA, and this damage depends on the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO). The oxidation products in quadruplex DNA are different from those in single-stranded or double-stranded DNA.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are harnessed by the cell for signaling at the same time as being detrimental to cellular components such as DNA. The genome and transcriptome contain instructions that can alter cellular processes when oxidized. The guanine (G) heterocycle in the nucleotide pool, DNA, or RNA is the base most prone to oxidation. The oxidatively-derived products of G consistently observed in high yields from hydroxyl radical, carbonate radical, or singlet oxygen oxidations under conditions modeling the cellular reducing environment are discussed. The major G base oxidation products are 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG), 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (2Ih), spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), and 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh). The yields of these products show dependency on the oxidant and the reaction context that includes nucleoside, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), and G-quadruplex DNA (G4-DNA) structures. Upon formation of these products in cells, they are recognized by the DNA glycosylases in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. This review focuses on initiation of BER by the mammalian Nei-like1-3 (NEIL1-3) glycosylases for removal of 2Ih, Sp, and Gh. The unique ability of the human NEILs to initiate removal of the hydantoins in ssDNA, bulge-DNA, bubble-DNA, dsDNA, and G4-DNA is outlined. Additionally, when Gh exists in a G4 DNA found in a gene promoter, NEIL-mediated repair is modulated by the plasticity of the G4-DNA structure provided by additional G-runs flanking the sequence. On the basis of these observations and cellular studies from the literature, the interplay between DNA oxidation and BER to alter gene expression is discussed.

Abstract
Introduction 2,2,4-Triamino-5(2H)-oxazolone (Oz) in a DNA strand is an oxidation product of guanine and 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydroguanine, and such a lesion can cause G-to-C transversions. Previously, Fpg/Nei and Nth were shown to have incision activity on Oz. Findings We investigated the activities of chlorella virus pyrimidine dimer glycosylase (cvPDG) and Escherichia coli endonucleases IV (Nfo) and V (Nfi) on Oz. Although the three enzymes have different repair mechanisms from Fpg/Nei and Nth, they still had incision activity on Oz. Conclusions Given the incision activities of cvPDG, Nfo and Nfi on Oz in addition to Fpg/Nei and Nth, Oz is DNA damage that can be repaired by diverse enzymes.

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

Abstract
![]()
The nucleobase guanine in DNA (dG)
and RNA (rG) has the lowest
standard reduction potential of the bases, rendering it a major site
of oxidative damage in these polymers. Mapping the sites at which
oxidation occurs in an oligomer via chemical reagents utilizes hot
piperidine for cleaving oxidized DNA and aniline (pH 4.5) for cleaving
oxidized RNA. In the present studies, a series of time-dependent cleavages
of DNA and RNA strands containing various guanine lesions were examined
to determine the strand scission rate constants. The guanine base
lesions 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG), spiroiminodihydantoin
(Sp), 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh), 2,2,4-triamino-2H-oxazol-5-one (Z), and 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin
(2Ih) were evaluated in piperidine-treated DNA and aniline-treated
RNA. These data identified wide variability in the chemical lability
of the lesions studied in both DNA and RNA. Further, the rate constants
for cleaving lesions in RNA were generally found to be significantly
smaller than for lesions in DNA. The OG nucleotides were poorly cleaved
in DNA and RNA; Sp nucleotides were slowly cleaved in DNA and did
not cleave significantly in RNA; Gh and Z nucleotides cleaved in both
DNA and RNA at intermediate rates; and 2Ih oligonucleotides cleaved
relatively quickly in both DNA and RNA. The data are compared and
contrasted with respect to future experimental design.

Molecules 2014; 19:11030-44.

Abstract
DNA is constantly being oxidized, and oxidized DNA is prone to mutation; moreover, guanine is highly sensitive to several oxidative stressors. Several oxidatively damaged forms of guanine—including 2,2,4-triamino-5(2H)-oxazolone (Oz), iminoallantoin (Ia), and spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp)—can be paired with guanine, and cause G:C-C:G transversions. Previous findings indicate that guanine is incorporated more efficiently opposite Oz than opposite Ia or Sp, and that these differences in efficiency cannot be explained by differences in the stabilities of G:Oz, G:Ia, and G:Sp base pairs calculated abinitio. Here, to explain previous experimental result, we used a 3-base-pair model DNA duplex to calculate the difference in the stability and the distortion of DNA containing a G:Oz, G:Ia, or G:Sp base pair. We found that the stability of the structure containing 5' and 3' base pairs adjacent to G:Oz was more stable than that containing the respective base pairs adjacent to G:Ia or G:Sp. Moreover, the distortion of the structure in the DNA model duplex that contained a G:Oz was smaller than that containing a G:Ia or G:Sp. Therefore, our discussion can explain the previous results involving translesion synthesis past an oxidatively damaged guanine.

Abstract
Folic acid (FA), also named vitamin B9, is an essential cofactor for the synthesis of DNA bases and other biomolecules after bioactivation by dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). FA is photoreactive and has been shown to generate DNA modifications when irradiated with UVA (360 nm) in the presence of DNA under cell-free conditions. To investigate the relevance of this reaction for cells and tissues, we irradiated three different cell lines (KB nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, HaCaT keratinocytes, and a melanoma cell line) in the presence of FA and quantified cytotoxicity and DNA damage generation. The results indicate that FA is phototoxic and photogenotoxic by two different mechanisms. First, extracellular photodecomposition of FA gives rise to the generation of H2O2, which causes mostly DNA strand breaks. If this is prevented, e.g., by the presence of catalase, DNA damage generated by intracellular FA becomes evident. The damage spectrum in this case consists predominantly of oxidatively generated purine modifications sensitive to the repair glycosylase Fpg, as characteristic for type I photoreactions, and is associated with the formation of micronuclei. In KB cells, the DNA damage is strongly enhanced after pretreatment with the DHFR inhibitor methotrexate, which prevents the loss of the chromophore associated with the intracellular reduction of FA by DHFR. The results indicate that FA is photoreactive in cells and gives rise to nuclear DNA damage under irradiation.

Abstract
EAC in its early stages, when it can potentially be cured, is rarely symptomatic and is associated with high mortality rates because in part of late-stage diagnosis. Given that DNA repair is an important contributory factor of early-stage malignancy, our study focused on the expression of the base excision repair enzyme N-methylpurine DNA glycosylase (MPG) in EAC disease onset. MPG messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels were determined using quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction from a maximum of 72 patient samples. Immunohistochemistry was further utilized for the detection of MPG protein, and semiquantitative analysis performed using an H-score approach was carried out on a total of 130 archival tissue samples of different esophageal pathologies. Nuclear localized MPG protein was detected in all nonmalignant tissues derived from the enterohepatic system, with H-score values of 3.9-5.5 ± 0.4-1.0. In cancerous tissues derived from the enterohepatic system, a 9.5-fold increase in the level of MPG mRNA expression was specifically observed in the malignant regions located within the esophagus region. Further analysis revealed a 9- and 14-fold increase in MPG mRNA expression in EAC tumor, node, metastasis stages II and III, respectively, suggesting MPG expression to correlate with EAC disease progression. Immunohistochemistry analysis further showed a sevenfold significant increase in MPG protein expression in EAC tissues. Intriguingly, there was a fivefold significant decrease in nuclear localized MPG protein expression in tissues derived from Barrett's esophagus and low-grade dysplasia. Such findings highlight a complex regulatory pattern governing DNA glycosylase base excision repair initiation, as normal tissue undergoes Barrett's metaplasia and later dedifferentiates to EAC. Indeed, disease-stage-specific alterations in the expression of MPG may highlight a potential role for MPG in determining EAC onset and thus potentially be of clinical relevance for early disease detection and increased patient survival.

Abstract
Hypobromous acid (HOBr) is formed by eosinophil peroxidase and myeloperoxidase in the presence of H2O2, Cl(-), and Br(-) in the host defense system of humans, protecting against invading bacteria. However, the formed HOBr may cause damage to DNA and its components in the host. When a guanine nucleoside (3',5'-di-O-acetyl-2'-deoxyguansoine) was treated with HOBr at pH 7.4, spiroiminodihydantoin, guanidinohydantoin/iminoallantoin, dehydro-iminoallantoin, diimino-imidazole, amino-imidazolone, and diamino-oxazolone nucleosides were generated in addition to an 8-bromoguanine nucleoside. The major products were spiroiminodihydantoin under neutral conditions and guanidinohydantoin/iminoallantoin under mildly acidic conditions. All the products were formed in the reaction with HOCl in the presence of Br(-). These products were also produced by eosinophil peroxidase or myeloperoxidase in the presence of H2O2, Cl(-), and Br(-). The results suggest that the products other than 8-bromoguanine may also have importance for mutagenesis by the reaction of HOBr with guanine residues in nucleotides and DNA.

Abstract
Telomere shortening occurs during oxidative and inflammatory stress with guanine (G) as the major site of damage. In this work, a comprehensive profile of the sites of oxidation and structures of products observed from G-quadruplex and duplex structures of the human telomere sequence was studied in the G-quadruplex folds (hybrid (K(+)), basket (Na(+)), and propeller (K(+) + 50% CH3CN)) resulting from the sequence 5'-(TAGGGT)4T-3' and in an appropriate duplex containing one telomere repeat. Oxidations with four oxidant systems consisting of riboflavin photosensitization, carbonate radical generation, singlet oxygen, and the copper Fenton-like reaction were analyzed under conditions of low product conversion to determine relative reactivity. The one-electron oxidants damaged the 5'-G in G-quadruplexes leading to spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) and 2,2,4-triamino-2H-oxazol-5-one (Z) as major products as well as 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG) and 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh) in low relative yields, while oxidation in the duplex context produced damage at the 5'- and middle-Gs of GGG sequences and resulted in Gh being the major product. Addition of the reductant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to the reaction did not alter the riboflavin-mediated damage sites but decreased Z by 2-fold and increased OG by 5-fold, while not altering the hydantoin ratio. However, NAC completely quenched the CO3(•-) reactions. Singlet oxygen oxidations of the G-quadruplex showed reactivity at all Gs on the exterior faces of G-quartets and furnished the product Sp, while no oxidation was observed in the duplex context under these conditions, and addition of NAC had no effect. Because a long telomere sequence would have higher-order structures of G-quadruplexes, studies were also conducted with 5'-(TAGGGT)8-T-3', and it provided oxidation profiles similar to those of the single G-quadruplex. Lastly, Cu(II)/H2O2-mediated oxidations were found to be indiscriminate in the damage patterns, and 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (2Ih) was found to be a major duplex product, while nearly equal yields of 2Ih and Sp were observed in G-quadruplex contexts. These findings indicate that the nature of the secondary structure of folded DNA greatly alters both the reactivity of G toward oxidative stress as well as the product outcome and suggest that recognition of damage in telomeric sequences by repair enzymes may be profoundly different from that of B-form duplex DNA.

Abstract
Guanidinohydantoin (Gh) is a hyperoxidized DNA lesion produced by oxidation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG). Previous work has shown that Gh is potently mutagenic in both in vitro and in vivo coding for G → T and G → C transversion mutations. In this work, analysis by circular dichroism shows that the Gh lesion does not significantly alter the global structure of a 15-mer duplex and that the DNA remains in the B-form. However, we find that Gh causes a large decrease in the thermal stability, decreasing the duplex melting temperature by ~17 °C relative to an unmodified duplex control. Using optical melting analysis and differential scanning calorimetry, the thermodynamic parameters describing duplex melting were also determined. We find that the Gh lesion causes a dramatic decrease in the enthalpic stability of the duplex. This enthalpic destabilization is somewhat tempered by entropic stabilization; yet, Gh results in an overall decrease in thermodynamic stability of the duplex relative to a control that lacks DNA damage, with a ΔΔG° of -7 kcal/mol. These results contribute to our understanding of the consequences of hyperoxidation of G and provide insight into how the thermal and thermodynamic destabilization caused by Gh may influence replication and/or repair of the lesion.

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
The nucleobase derivative, 2,2,4-triamino-5(2H)-oxazolone (Oz), is an oxidation product of guanine or of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine that causes G-to-C transversions in DNA. Human NEIL1 (hNEIL1) and NTH1 (hNTH1) are homologues of two prokaryotic base excision repair enzymes, FPG/NEI and NTH, respectively. Here, we demonstrated that hNEIL1 and hNTH1 cleave Oz sites as efficiently as 5-hydroxyuracil sites. Thus, hNEIL1 and hNTH1 can repair Oz lesions. Furthermore, the nicking activities of these enzymes are largely independent of nucleobases opposite Oz; this finding indicates that removing Oz from Oz:G and Oz:A base pairs might cause an increase in the rate of point mutations in human cells.

Abstract
DNA is constantly exposed to endogenous and exogenous oxidative stresses. Damaged DNA can cause mutations, which may increase the risk of developing cancer and other diseases. G:C-C:G transversions are caused by various oxidative stresses. 2,2,4-Triamino-5(2H)-oxazolone (Oz), guanidinohydantoin (Gh)/iminoallantoin (Ia) and spiro-imino-dihydantoin (Sp) are known products of oxidative guanine damage. These damaged bases can base pair with guanine and cause G:C-C:G transversions. In this study, the stabilization energies of these bases paired with guanine were calculated in vacuo and in water. The calculated stabilization energies of the Ia:G base pairs were similar to that of the native C:G base pair, and both bases pairs have three hydrogen bonds. By contrast, the calculated stabilization energies of Gh:G, which form two hydrogen bonds, were lower than the Ia:G base pairs, suggesting that the stabilization energy depends on the number of hydrogen bonds. In addition, the Sp:G base pairs were less stable than the Ia:G base pairs. Furthermore, calculations showed that the Oz:G base pairs were less stable than the Ia:G, Gh:G and Sp:G base pairs, even though experimental results showed that incorporation of guanine opposite Oz is more efficient than that opposite Gh/Ia and Sp.

Abstract
Nucleosomes were reconstituted from recombinant histones and a 147-mer DNA sequence containing the damage reporter sequence 5'-…d([2AP]T[GGG](1)TT[GGG](2)TTT[GGG](3)TAT)… with 2-aminopurine (2AP) at position 27 from the dyad axis. Footprinting studies with ˙OH radicals reflect the usual effects of "in" and "out" rotational settings, while, interestingly, the guanine oxidizing one-electron oxidant CO(3)(˙-) radical does not. Site-specific hole injection was achieved by 308 nm excimer laser pulses to produce 2AP(˙+) cations, and superoxide via the trapping of hydrated electrons. Rapid deprotonation (~100 ns) and proton coupled electron transfer generates neutral guanine radicals, G(-H)˙ and hole hopping between the three groups of [GGG] on micro- to millisecond time scales. Hole transfer competes with hole trapping that involves the combination of O(2)(˙-) with G(-H)˙ radicals to yield predominantly 2,5-diamino-4H-imidazolone (Iz) and minor 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) end-products in free DNA (Misiaszek et al., J. Biol. Chem. 2004, 279, 32106). Hole migration is less efficient in nucleosomal than in the identical protein-free DNA by a factor of 1.2-1.5. The Fpg/piperidine strand cleavage ratio is ~1.0 in free DNA at all three GGG sequences and at the "in" rotational settings [GGG](1,3) facing the histone core, and ~2.3 at the "out" setting at [GGG](2) facing away from the histone core. These results are interpreted in terms of competitive reaction pathways of O(2)(˙-) with G(-H)˙ radicals at the C5 (yielding Iz) and C8 (yielding 8-oxoG) positions. These differences in product distributions are attributed to variations in the local nucleosomal B-DNA base pair structural parameters that are a function of surrounding sequence context and rotational setting.

Abstract
The ability of DNA to transport positive charges, or holes, over long distances is well-established, but the mechanistic details of how this process is influenced by packaging into DNA-protein complexes have not been fully delineated. In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is packaged into chromatin through its association with the core histone octamer to form the nucleosome core particle (NCP), a complex whose structure can be modulated through changes in the local environment and the histone proteins. Because (i) varying the salt concentration and removing the histone tails influence the structure of the NCP in known ways and (ii) previous studies have shown that DNA hole transport (HT) occurs in the nucleosome, we have used our previously described 601 sequence NCPs to test the hypothesis that DNA HT dynamics can be modulated by structural changes in a DNA-protein complex. We show that at low salt concentrations there is a sharp increase in long-range DNA HT efficiency in the NCP as compared to naked DNA. This enhancement of HT can be negated by either removal of the histone tails at low salt concentrations or disruption of the interaction of the packaged DNA and the histone tails by increasing the buffer's ionic strength. Association of the histone tails with 601 DNA at low salt concentrations shifts the guanine damage spectrum to favor lesions like 8-oxoguanine in the NCP, most likely through modulation of the rate of the reaction of the guanine radical cation with oxygen. These experimental results indicate that for most genomic DNA, the influence of DNA-protein interactions on DNA HT will depend strongly on the level of protection of the DNA nucleobases from oxygen. Further, these results suggest that the oxidative damage arising from DNA HT may vary in different genomic regions depending on the presence of either euchromatin or heterochromatin.

Abstract
Oxidative degradation of DNA is a major mutagenic process. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in the course of oxidative phosphorylation or by exogenous factors are known to attack preferentially deoxyguanosine. The latter decomposes to give mutagenic lesions, which under physiological conditions are efficiently repaired by specialized maintenance systems in the cell. Although many intermediates of the degradation pathway are today well-known, we report in this study the discovery of a new intermediate with an interesting guanidinoformimine structure. The structure elucidation of the new lesion was possible by using HPLC-MS techniques and organic synthesis. Finally we report the mutagenic potential of the new lesion in comparison to the known lesions imidazolone and oxazolone using primer extension and pyrosequencing experiments.

Abstract
Of the four native nucleosides, 2'-deoxyguanosine (dGuo) is most easily oxidized. Two lesions derived from dGuo are 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (Fapy)∙dGuo. Furthermore, while steady-state levels of 8-oxodGuo can be detected in genomic DNA, it is also known that 8-oxodGuo is more easily oxidized than dGuo. Thus, 8-oxodGuo is susceptible to further oxidation to form several hyperoxidized dGuo products. This review addresses the structural impact, the mutagenic and genotoxic potential, and biological implications of oxidatively damaged DNA, in particular 8-oxodGuo, Fapy∙dGuo, and the hyperoxidized dGuo products.

Abstract
Endogenous and exogenous sources cause oxidatively induced DNA damage in living organisms by a variety of mechanisms. The resulting DNA lesions are mutagenic and, unless repaired, lead to a variety of mutations and consequently to genetic instability, which is a hallmark of cancer. Oxidatively induced DNA damage is repaired in living cells by different pathways that involve a large number of proteins. Unrepaired and accumulated DNA lesions may lead to disease processes including carcinogenesis. Mutations also occur in DNA repair genes, destabilizing the DNA repair system. A majority of cancer cell lines have somatic mutations in their DNA repair genes. In addition, polymorphisms in these genes constitute a risk factor for cancer. In general, defects in DNA repair are associated with cancer. Numerous DNA repair enzymes exist that possess different, but sometimes overlapping substrate specificities for removal of oxidatively induced DNA lesions. In addition to the role of DNA repair in carcinogenesis, recent evidence suggests that some types of tumors possess increased DNA repair capacity that may lead to therapy resistance. DNA repair pathways are drug targets to develop DNA repair inhibitors to increase the efficacy of cancer therapy. Oxidatively induced DNA lesions and DNA repair proteins may serve as potential biomarkers for early detection, cancer risk assessment, prognosis and for monitoring therapy. Taken together, a large body of accumulated evidence suggests that oxidatively induced DNA damage and its repair are important factors in the development of human cancers. Thus this field deserves more research to contribute to the development of cancer biomarkers, DNA repair inhibitors and treatment approaches to better understand and fight cancer.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species, as singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) and hydrogen peroxide, are continuously generated by aerobic organisms, and react actively with biomolecules. At excessive amounts, (1)O(2) induces oxidative stress and shows carcinogenic and toxic effects due to oxidation of lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. Singlet oxygen is able to react with DNA molecule and may induce G to T transversions due to 8-oxodG generation. The nucleotide excision repair, base excision repair and mismatch repair have been implicated in the correction of DNA lesions induced by (1)O(2) both in prokaryotic and in eukaryotic cells. (1)O(2) is also able to induce the expression of genes involved with the cellular responses to oxidative stress, such as NF-κB, c-fos and c-jun, and genes involved with tissue damage and inflammation, as ICAM-1, interleukins 1 and 6. The studies outlined in this review reinforce the idea that (1)O(2) is one of the more dangerous reactive oxygen species to the cells, and deserves our attention.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to define the effect of DNA sequence on the reactivity of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) toward oxidation. To this end, we developed a quadrupole/time-of-flight (QTOF) mass spectrometric method to quantify the reactivity of site specifically modified oligodeoxyribonucleotides with two model oxidants: nitrosoperoxycarbonate (ONOOCO(2)(-)), a chemical mediator of inflammation, and photoactivated riboflavin, a classical one-electron oxidant widely studied in mutagenesis and charge transport in DNA. In contrast to previous observations with guanine [ Margolin , Y. , ( 2006 ) Nat. Chem. Biol. 2 , 365 ], sequence context did not affect the reactivity of ONOOCO(2)(-) with 8-oxodG, but photosensitized riboflavin showed a strong sequence preference in its reactivity with the following order (8-oxodG = O): COA ≈ AOG > GOG ≥ COT > TOC > AOC. That the COA context was the most reactive was unexpected and suggests a new sequence context where mutation hotspots might occur. These results point to both sequence- and agent-specific effects on 8-oxodG oxidation.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species attack both base and sugar moieties in DNA with a preference among the bases for reaction at guanine. In the present study, 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) was oxidized by a copper-mediated Fenton reaction with the reductants ascorbate or N-acetyl-cysteine, yielding oxidation on both the base and the sugar. The primary oxidized lesions observed in these studies include the 2'-deoxyribonucleosides of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (dOG), spiroiminodihydantoin (dSp), guanidinohydantoin (dGh), oxazolone (dZ), and 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (d2Ih), as well as the free base guanine. d2Ih was the major product observed in the nucleoside, single- and double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotide contexts and is proposed to arise from oxidation at C5 of guanine. Product distribution studies provide insight into the role of the reductant in partitioning of dG base oxidation along the C5 and C8 pathways.

Abstract
To protect cells from oxidative DNA damage and mutagenesis, organisms possess multiple glycosylases to recognize the damaged bases and to initiate the Base Excision Repair pathway. Three DNA glycosylases have been identified in mammals that are homologous to the Escherichia coli Fpg and Nei proteins, Neil1, Neil2, and Neil3. Neil1 and Neil2 in human and mouse have been well characterized while the properties of the Neil3 protein remain to be elucidated. In this study, we report the characterization of Mus musculus (house mouse) Neil3 (MmuNeil3) as an active DNA glycosylase both in vitro and in vivo. In duplex DNA, MmuNeil3 recognizes the oxidized purines, spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), guanidinohydantoin (Gh), 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyG) and 4,6-diamino- 5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyA), but not 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG). Interestingly, MmuNeil3 prefers lesions in single-stranded DNA and in bubble structures. In contrast to other members of the family that use the N-terminal proline as the nucleophile, MmuNeil3 forms a Schiff base intermediate via its N-terminal valine. We expressed the glycosylase domain of MmuNeil3 (MmuNeil3Delta324) in an Escherichia coli triple mutant lacking Fpg, Nei, and MutY glycosylase activities and showed that MmuNeil3 greatly reduced both the spontaneous mutation frequency and the level of FapyG in the DNA, suggesting that Neil3 plays a role in repairing FapyG in vivo.

Abstract
The DNA of all organisms is persistently damaged by endogenous reactive molecules. Most of the single-base endogenous damage is repaired through the base excision repair (BER) pathway that is initiated by members of the DNA glycosylase family. Although the BER pathway is often considered to proceed through a common abasic site intermediate, emerging evidence indicates that there are likely distinct branches reflected by the multitude of chemically different 3' and 5' ends generated at the repair site. In this study, we have applied matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) to the analysis of model DNA substrates acted on by recombinant glycosylases. We examine the chemical identity of several possible abasic site and nicked intermediates generated by monofunctional and bifunctional glycosylases. Our results suggest that the intermediate from endoIII/Nth might not be a simple beta-elimination product as described previously. On the basis of (18)O incorporation experiments, we propose a new mechanism for the endoIII/Nth family of glycosylases that may resolve several of the previous controversies. We further demonstrate that the use of an array of lesion-containing oligonucleotides can be used to rapidly examine the substrate preferences of a given glycosylase. Some of the lesions examined here can be acted on by more than one glycosylase, resulting in a spectrum of damaged intermediates for each lesion, suggesting that the sequence and coordination of repair activities that act on these lesions may influence the biological outcome of damage repair.

Abstract
DNA sustains a wide variety of damage, such as the formation of abasic sites, pyrimidine dimers, alkylation adducts, or oxidative lesions, upon exposure to UV radiation, alkylating agents, or oxidative conditions. Since these forms of damage may be acutely toxic or mutagenic and potentially carcinogenic, it is of interest to gain insight into how their structures impact biochemical processing of DNA, such as synthesis, transcription, and repair. Lesion-specific molecular probes have been used to study polymerase-mediated translesion DNA synthesis of abasic sites and TT dimers, while other probes have been developed for specifically investigating the alkylation adduct O(6)-Bn-G and the oxidative lesion 8-oxo-G. In this review, recent examples of lesion-specific molecular probes are surveyed; their specificities of incorporation opposite target lesions compared to unmodified nucleotides are discussed, and limitations of their applications under physiologically relevant conditions are assessed.

Abstract
PURPOSE 1-(2-Deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-cyanuric acid (cyanuric acid nucleoside or dCa) has been shown to be formed upon exposure of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine- (8-oxoG) containing oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODN) to oxidizing agents. When present in DNA, cyanuric acid (Ca) is readily bypassed by Escherichia coli DNA polymerases, which preferentially incorporate 2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-monophosphate (dAMP) opposite to the lesion. Therefore, Ca could be a mutagenic DNA lesion yielding G.C to T.A transversions like 8-oxoG. These results call attention to the potential importance of secondary oxidation products of 8-oxoG. The present study investigates the capability of several DNA N-glycosylases to remove the Ca lesion in DNA. MATERIALS AND METHODS A site-specifically modified 22-mer ODN containing a single Ca residue was hybridized with complementary sequences yielding four DNA duplexes harbouring Ca opposite each of the regular DNA bases. The four Ca.N duplexes were used as substrates for nine DNA N-glycosylases from bacterial, yeast or human origin. RESULTS The results show that the human methylpurine DNA N-glycosylase (Mpg) can remove Ca from DNA duplexes. Interestingly, oxidized base-specific DNA N-glycosylases, Fpg, Nth, Ntg1, Ntg2, Ogg1, hNth1 and hOgg1, cannot repair Ca in DNA. Furthermore, the removal of Ca by Mpg varied markedly depending on the opposite DNA base, the rank being Ca.C=Ca.T>Ca.G=Ca.A. CONCLUSIONS 8-OxoG-derived lesions in DNA such as spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), guanidinohydantoin (Gh), oxaluric acid (Oa), oxazolone (Oz) and Ca are substrates of base excision repair DNA N-glycosylases. Most of them, Sp, Gh, Oa and Oz, are substrates of the oxidized bases-specific enzymes such as Nth or Fpg. In contrast, Ca is substrate of the human methylpurine DNA N-glycosylase (Mpg).

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the effect of the amino acid tyrosine on oxidatively or direct-type damaged DNA damage when it is present in a DNA binding ligand. MATERIALS AND METHODS We made use of tetralysine ligands to ensure binding to DNA and to condense the DNA, and simulated direct-type damage by using gamma irradiation in the presence of thiocyanate ions. These ligands contained an additional C terminal amino acid. Phenylalanine was used as a control for tyrosine. These ligands were used in conjuction with a plasmid substrate to quantify strand break yields. Base damage yields were estimated by measuring the strand break yield after incubation of the plasmid with the bacterial base excision repair enzyme formamidopyrimidine-DNA N-glycosylase (FPG). RESULTS When the condensing ligand contains an additional tyrosine or tryptophan residue, the plasmid is protected against the effects of a single electron oxidation, as assayed by sensitivity to a base excision repair enzyme. This protection is significantly greater in condensed plasmid where the amino acid residues are in close proximity to the DNA, and can be observed even when only a small fraction of the ligand contains tyrosine. CONCLUSIONS Bound tyrosine residues located in close proximity to DNA are capable of reversing oxidative DNA damage far more efficiently than when present unbound in the bulk solution. This suggests that tyrosine residues in DNA binding proteins may participate in the repair of DNA that has been oxidatively damaged by ionizing radiation.

Abstract
Oxidatively induced damage to DNA results in a plethora of lesions comprising modified bases and sugars, DNA-protein cross-links, tandem lesions, strand breaks, and clustered lesions. Formamidopyrimidines, 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyAde) and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyGua), are among the major lesions generated in DNA by hydroxyl radical attack, UV radiation, or photosensitization under numerous in vitro and in vivo conditions. They are formed by one-electron reduction of C8-OH-adduct radicals of purines and thus have a common precursor with 8-hydroxypurines generated upon one-electron oxidation. Methodologies using mass spectrometry exist to accurately measure FapyAde and FapyGua in vitro and in vivo. Formamidopyrimidines are repaired by base excision repair. Numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA glycosylases are highly specific for removal of these lesions from DNA in the first step of this repair pathway, indicating their biological importance. FapyAde and FapyGua are bypassed by DNA polymerases with the insertion of the wrong intact base opposite them, leading to mutagenesis. In mammalian cells, the mutagenicity of FapyGua exceeds that of 8-hydroxyguanine, which is thought to be the most mutagenic of the oxidatively induced lesions in DNA. The background and formation levels of the former in vitro and in vivo equal or exceed those of the latter under various conditions. FapyAde and FapyGua exist in living cells at significant background levels and are abundantly generated upon exposure to oxidative stress. Mice lacking the genes that encode specific DNA glycosylases accumulate these lesions in different organs and, in some cases, exhibit a series of pathological conditions including metabolic syndrome and cancer. Animals exposed to environmental toxins accumulate formamidopyrimidines in their organs. Here, we extensively review the mechanisms of formation, measurement, repair, and biological effects of formamidopyrimidines that have been investigated in the past 50 years. Our goal is to emphasize the importance of these neglected lesions in many biological and disease processes.

Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2008; 1790:16-24.

Abstract
BACKGROUND (5R) and (5S) diastereomers of 1-[2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl]-5-hydroxyhydantoin (5-OH-dHyd) and 1-[2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl]-5-hydroxy-5-methylhydantoin (5-OH-5-Me-dHyd) are major oxidation products of 2'-deoxycytidine and thymidine respectively. If not repaired, when present in cellular DNA, these base lesions may be processed by DNA polymerases that induce mutagenic and cell lethality processes. METHODS Synthetic oligonucleotides that contained a unique 5-hydroxyhydantoin (5-OH-Hyd) or 5-hydroxy-5-methylhydantoin (5-OH-5-Me-Hyd) nucleobase were used as probes for repair studies involving several E. coli, yeast and human purified DNA N-glycosylases. Enzymatic reaction mixtures were analyzed by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after radiolabeling of DNA oligomers or by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry measurements. RESULTS In vitro DNA excision experiments carried out with endo III, endo VIII, Fpg, Ntg1 and Ntg2, show that both base lesions are substrates for these DNA N-glycosylases. The yeast and human Ogg1 proteins (yOgg1 and hOgg1 respectively) and E. coli AlkA were unable to cleave the N-glycosidic bond of the 5-OH-Hyd and 5-OH-5-Me-Hyd lesions. Comparison of the kcat/Km ratio reveals that 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine is only a slightly better substrate than 5-OH-Hyd and 5-OH-5-Me-Hyd. The kinetic results obtained with endo III indicate that 5-OH-Hyd and 5-OH-5-Me-Hyd are much better substrates than 5-hydroxycytosine, a well known oxidized pyrimidine substrate for this DNA N-glycosylase. CONCLUSIONS The present study supports a biological relevance of the base excision repair processes toward the hydantoin lesions, while the removal by the Fpg and endo III proteins are effected at better or comparable rates to that of the removal of 8-oxoGua and 5-OH-Cyt, two established cellular substrates. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE The study provides new insights into the substrate specificity of DNA N-glycosylases involved in the base excision repair of oxidized bases, together with complementary information on the biological role of hydantoin type lesions.

Abstract
Imidazolone (dIz) is an abundant, highly mutagenic, and rather unstable DNA lesion that can cause dG-->dC transversion mutations. dIz is generated in DNA by a variety of oxidative processes such as type I photooxidation. Herein we report the synthesis of a carbocyclic nucleoside analogue of dIz and of DNA containing this stabilized lesion analogue. The carbocyclic modification protects this lesion analogue from anomerization. As the repair of the lesion analogue by DNA glycosylases is not possible, this analogue should allow cocrystallization studies together with wild-type repair enzymes. Characterization of the lesion analogue was performed by using spectroscopic methods and enzymatic digestion experiments of the oligonucleotides.

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

Abstract
Increasing evidence reveals the carcinogenicity of UVA radiation. We demonstrated that UVA-irradiated NADH induced damage to (32)P-labeled DNA fragments obtained from the p53 gene in the presence of Cu(II). Formamidopyrimidine glycosylase (Fpg)-sensitive lesions were formed at guanine residues, whereas piperidine-labile lesions occurred frequently at thymine residues. Formation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), upon UVA exposure in the presence of Cu(II), increased depending on NADH concentration. Catalase and bathocuproine, a Cu(I)-specific chelator, inhibited the DNA damage, suggesting the involvement of reactive species derived from H(2)O(2) and Cu(I). UVA-irradiated riboflavin induced DNA cleavage through electron transfer at 5' guanine of the 5'-GG-3' sequence with both Fpg and piperidine treatments; Fpg induced less cleavage at the guanine residues than piperidine. These results imply that NADH may participate as an endogenous photosensitizer in UVA carcinogenesis via H(2)O(2) generation, producing metal-mediated mutagenic lesions such as 8-oxodG.

Abstract
Oxidative stress can take place in marine bivalves under a series of environmental adverse conditions. The study of different systems related to oxidative stress in these organisms can give important information about their physiological status and also about environmental health. Bivalves have been proposed as good sentinel organisms in pollution monitoring studies through the analysis of biochemical biomarkers, and most of the biomarkers analyzed are those related to oxidative stress. However, it is very important to know how other environmental factors not associated to the presence of pollutants might affect these parameters. We have studied a series of mechanisms related to oxidative stress in mussels which inhabit the Brazilian coast, especially in Perna perna species, subjected to different stress conditions, such as the exposure to different contaminants in the laboratory and in the field, the exposure of mussels to air and re-submersion, simulating the tidal oscillations, and in mussels collected at different seasons. Both oxidative damage levels and antioxidant defense systems were strongly affected by the different environmental stress. This review summarizes the data obtained in some studies carried out in bivalves from the Brazilian coast.

Abstract
A major DNA oxidation product, 2,2-diamino-4-[(2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl)amino]-5(2H)-oxazolone (oxazolone), can be generated either directly by oxidation of dG or as a secondary oxidation product with an intermediate of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG). Site-specific mutagenesis studies indicate that oxazolone is a strongly mispairing lesion, inducing ∼10-fold more mutations than 8-oxo-dG. While 8-oxo-dG undergoes facile further oxidation, oxazolone appears to be a stable final product of guanine oxidation, and, if formed in vivo, can potentially serve as a biomarker of DNA damage induced by oxidative stress. In this study, capillary liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS/MS) methods were developed to enable quantitative analysis of both 8-oxo-dG and oxazolone in DNA from biological sources. Sensitive and specific detection of 8-oxo-dG and oxazolone in enzymatic DNA hydrolysates was achieved by isotope dilution with the corresponding 15N-labeled internal standards. Both nucleobase adducts were formed in a dose-dependent manner in calf thymus DNA subjected to photooxidation in the presence of riboflavin. While the amounts of oxazolone continued to increase with the duration of irradiation, those of 8-oxo-dG reached a maximum at 20 min, suggesting that 8-oxo-dG is converted to secondary oxidation products. Both lesions were found in rat liver DNA isolated under carefully monitored conditions to minimize artifactual oxidation. Liver DNA of diabetic and control rats maintained on a diet high in animal fat contained 2–6 molecules of oxazolone per 107 guanines, while 8-oxo-dG amounts in the same samples were between 3 and 8 adducts per 106 guanines. The formation of oxazolone lesions in rat liver DNA, their relative stability in the presence of oxidants and their potent mispairing characteristics suggest that oxazolone may play a role in oxidative stress-mediated mutagenesis.

Abstract
Guanine bases in DNA are the most sensitive to oxidation. A lot of effort has been devoted to the understanding of the chemical modifications of guanine under different oxidizing conditions, the final goal being to know which lesions in DNA can be expected in vivo and their biological consequences. This article analyses the mechanisms underlying guanine oxidation by the comparison between one- and two-electron transfer processes. The different oxidants used in vitro give complementary answers. This overview presents a choice of some key intermediates and the predictive description of G-oxidation products that can be generated from these intermediates depending on the reaction conditions.

Abstract
5-Hydroxyuracil is a major oxidized nucleobase that can be generated by the action of •OH radical and one-electron oxidants. The latter modified base that exhibits a low ionization potential is highly susceptible to further degradation upon exposure to various oxidants. Emphasis was placed in thiswork on the formation and characterization of one-electron oxidation products of 5-hydroxyuracil within DNA fragments of defined sequence. For this purpose, 5-hydroxyuracil containing single- and double-stranded oligonucleotides of various lengths were synthesized and then exposed to the oxidizing action of iridium salts. Isodialuric acid was found to be formed almost quantitatively by a one-electron oxidation mechanism for which relevant information was inferred from a freeze-quenched ESR study. Information on the stability of isodialuric acid thus formed and its conversion products in aqueous solutions was also gained from experiments performed at acidic, neutral and alkali pH’s. Moreover, biochemical features dealing with the substrate specificity of several bacterial and yeast base excision repair enzymes to remove isodialuric acid from site-specifically modified DNA fragments were determined.
