Abstract From 24 hour collections of urines of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients, a novel nucleoside was isolated. It was assigned the structure, 5′-deoxyinosine (I) on the basis of UV, NMR and mass spectrometry and by comparison of the spectral data and HPLC and TLC mobilities with those of the authentic sample. Another nucleoside, 5′-deoxy-5′-methylthioadenosine sulfoxide previously isolated from the urines of immunodeficient children was also found in the urine of a CML patient. Possible origin and significance of both of these nucleosides are discussed. 相似文献

Large, rapidly evolving intergenic spacers in the mitochondrial DNA of the salamander family Ambystomatidae (Amphibia: Caudata) 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3
We report the presence, in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of all of the
sexual species of the salamander family Ambystomatidae, of a shared 240- bp
intergenic spacer between tRNAThr and tRNAPro. We place the intergenic
spacer in context by presenting the sequence of 1,746 bp of mtDNA from
Ambystoma tigrinum tigrinum, describe the nucleotide composition of the
intergenic spacer in all of the species of Ambystomatidae, and compare it
to other coding and noncoding regions of Ambystoma and several other
vertebrate mtDNAs. The nucleotide substitution rate of the intergenic
spacer is approximately three times faster than the substitution rate of
the control region, as shown by comparisons among six Ambystoma
macrodactylum sequences and eight members of the Ambystoma tigrinum
complex. We also found additional inserts within the intergenic spacers of
five species that varied from 87-444 bp in length. The presence of the
intergenic spacer in all sexual species of Ambystomatidae suggests that it
arose at least 20 MYA and has been a stable component of the ambystomatid
mtDNA ever since. As such, it represents one of the few examples of a large
and persistent intergenic spacer in the mtDNA of any vertebrate clade.

Two new modified uracil nucleosides, 5-carbamoylmethyuridine (ncm5U, I) and 5-carbamoylmethyl-2-thiouridine (ncm5s2U, II) were isolated from a 24 hr collection of a normal human urine. The structures were assigned on the basis of UV, NMR and mass spectral data and confirmed by comparison of the spectral data and HPLC mobilities with those of authentic samples. On the basis of experimental data it appears possible that 5-carbamoylmethyl-2-thio-uridine (ncm5s2U, II) may be a degradation product produced from a labile precursor by the chemical treatments during the isolation procedure. However, the other nucleoside (ncm5U,I) certainly appears to be of metabolic origin and was also found in the urines of one chronic myelogenous leukemia and one lung carcinoma patient.

A single free radical-initiating event can produce a pair of base lesions in DNA oligomers exposed to ionizing radiation. Whereas double base lesions have been observed previously, the present study shows that double lesions may sometimes consist of a base lesion and an associated strand break. The mechanism for the formation of double lesions is discussed. A redox process is postulated in which guanine is the source of the electron. It is suggested that double lesions may be formed in DNA either on adjacent nucleotides or, alternatively, on nucleotides separated by one, two or possibly more intervening nucleotides. It is hypothesized that intramolecular electron transfer facilitates the formation of double lesions on nonadjacent nucleotides. 相似文献

UVC-radiation-induced DNA damage was measured in mouse fibroblast cells using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in conjunction with isotopically labeled internal standards. The thymine glycol and formamide lesions were assayed in the form of modified dinucleoside monophosphates. The 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine lesion was measured as the modified nucleoside. DNA damage in cells treated with tirapazamine was also measured. Tirapazamine is a chemotherapeutic agent that acts via a free radical mechanism. The two agents, UVC radiation and tirapazamine, produce markedly different profiles of DNA damage, reflecting their respective mechanisms of action. Both agents produce significant amounts of thymine glycol and formamide damage, but only the former produced a measurable amount of the 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine lesion. The merits of measuring DNA damage at the dimer level are discussed. 相似文献

Singlet oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide are the reactive oxygen species (ROS) considered most responsible for producing oxidative stress in cells and organisms. Singlet oxygen interacts preferentially with guanine to produce 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine and spiroiminodihydantoin. DNA damage due to the latter lesion has not been detected directly in the DNA of cells exposed to singlet oxygen. In this study, the singlet oxygen-induced lesion was isolated from a short synthetic oligomer after exposure to UVA radiation in the presence of methylene blue. The lesion could be enzymatically excised from the oligomer in the form of a modified dinucleoside monophosphate. Using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), the singlet oxygen lesion was detected in the form of modified dinucleoside monophosphates in double-stranded DNA and in the DNA of HeLa cells exposed to singlet oxygen. Pentamer containing the singlet oxygen-induced lesion and an isotopic label was synthesized as an internal standard for quantifying the lesion and served as well as for correcting for losses of product during sample preparation. 相似文献

A different approach to the measurement of DNA damage has been developed based on the fact that many lesions can be excised from DNA in the form of modified dinucleoside monophosphates. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is used in conjunction with isotopically labeled internal standards to quantify the lesion. The method has several advantages, including high sensitivity for the detection of dinucleoside monophosphates. The method was applied to the measurement of the 5,6-dihydroxy-5,6-dihydrothymine (thymine glycol) lesion in the DNA of mouse fibroblast cells exposed in culture to various treatments including ionizing radiation, UVC light and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), an inhibitor of glutathione synthesis. The application of the method to the measurement of other DNA lesions is discussed. 相似文献

DNA X-irradiated in oxygenated aqueous solution produces the formamido lesion from the breakdown of pyrimidine nucleosides. This pyrimidine breakdown product inhibits the hydrolysis by nuclease P1 of the phosphoester bond 3' to the damaged nucleoside. Consequently, the lesion can be obtained from an enzymatic digest of the DNA as a modified dinucleoside monophosphate in which the 5' nucleoside contains the lesion. In this form, the formamido lesion can be detected with good sensitivity by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Nucleosides that have lost the base moiety also inhibit nuclease P1. Together, the formamido and abasic lesions account for all of the substantial peaks in the LC-MS ion current profile. 相似文献
