Exposure to methylene blue (MB) plus light mediates formation of large levels of 8-hydroxyguanine in DNA. The amount of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) present in DNA increased as the amount of MB concentration increased throughout the 2 to 200 microM range studied and was dependent on light exposure. As the time of light exposure increased so did the 8-OHdG content to levels of about 750 8-OHdG/10(5) deoxyguanosine after 15 min of light exposure when MB was at 20 microM. Even though previous research has demonstrated that hydroxyl free radicals formed from a variety of sources mediate 8-OHdG formation in DNA, inclusion of mannitol, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and desferal in the MB plus light experiments demonstrated that these scavengers of oxygen free radical intermediates or precursors caused either no change or an increase in the 8-OHdG content of DNA exposed to MB plus light. These results appear to rule out the direct role of oxygen free radical intermediates in the primary events involved in the MB plus light mediated formation of 8-OHdG in DNA. Oxygen was essential to cause MB plus light mediated 8-OHdG formation in DNA. It was noted that when the reaction was carried out where the deuterium oxide content had been increased to 100%, the amount of 8-OHdG formed in DNA increased about threefold over that observed when comparable reactions were carried out in pure H2O. Use of the singlet oxygen scavenger 2,5-dimethylfuran has yielded variable results on the MB plus light mediated formation of 8-OHdG in DNA. The data taken collectively clearly indicate that MB plus light mediates 8-OHdG formation in DNA. The D2O data and the requirement for oxygen suggest that singlet oxygen may be an intermediate. 相似文献

Formation of 8-hydroxyguanine within calf thymus DNA has been studied after exposure to uv-H2O2 as a hydroxyl free radical generating system. Using high-pressure liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection, we measured the amount of 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in the enzymatically digested DNA. The 8-OHdG content of uv-exposed DNA increased linearly with increasing H2O2 levels up to 0.03%, above which the rate of increase was less than linear. All hydroxyl free radical scavengers studied (mannitol, ethanol, thiourea, and salicylate), if present in the system when DNA was exposed to uv-H2O2, caused a decrease in the amount of 8-OHdG formed. Thiourea when incubated with damaged DNA caused a loss of 8-OHdG when it was an integral part of DNA. In contrast, thiourea did not react with the nucleoside free in solution. Reduced glutathione did not cause a decrease of 8-OHdG, either when it was an integral part of DNA, or, as the free nucleoside in solution. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of physical exercise on the level of 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua), a form of oxidative DNA damage, and its repair activity in human peripheral leukocytes. Whole blood samples were collected by venipuncture from 21 healthy male volunteers (10 trained athletes and 13 untrained men), aged 19-50 years, both before and after physical exercise. Trained athletes showed a lower level of 8-OH-Gua (2.4 ± 0.5/106 Gua, p = 0.0032) before exercise when compared to that of untrained men (6.2 ± 3.5). The mean levels of 8-OH-Gua of untrained subjects decreased significantly (p = 0.0057) from 6.2 ± 3.5/106 Gua (mean ± SD/106 Gua) to 3.3 ± 1.4/106 Gua after physical exercise. On the other hand, the mean levels of repair activity of untrained subjects significantly increased after exercise (p = 0.0093) from 0.037 ± 0.024 (mean DNA cleavage ratio ± SD) to 0.056 ± 0.036. In the trained athletes 8-OH-Gua level and its repair activity were not changed before and after the exercise. We also observed inter-individual differences in 8-OH-Gua levels and its repair activities. These results suggest that physical exercise causes both rapid and long-range reduction of oxidative DNA damage in human leukocytes, with individually different efficiencies. 相似文献

An endonuclease activity in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils that removes 8-hydroxyguanine residues from DNA+ 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

An endonuclease that specifically removes 8-hydroxyguanine (oh8Gua) from DNA has been isolated from Escherichia coli. As the amount of oh8Gua produced in DNA of X-ray-irradiated mice is known to decrease with time after irradiation, an attempt was made to find a similar activity in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) using a synthetic dsDNA containing oh8Gua as a substrate. The PMN enzyme was isolated free of other DNases, and found to cleave the substrate DNA simultaneously at 2 sites, the phosphodiester bonds 5' and 3' to oh8Gua, producing free hydroxyl and phosphate groups, respectively. The enzyme showed almost no activity on DNAs containing other kinds of modified base tested or mismatched DNA. Thus human cells also contain an endonuclease that specifically removes oh8Gua residues from DNA. 相似文献

Covalently closed circular choloroplast DNA (ctDNA) molecules have been isolated from pea, bean, spinach, lettuce, corn and oat plants by ethidium bromide/cesium choloride density-gradient entrifugation. As much as 30-40% of the total ctDNA could be isolated as closed circular DNA molecules and up to 80% of the total ctDNA was found in the form of circular molecules. The size of pea, spinach, lettuce, corn and oat ctDNA relative to an internal standard (phiX174 replicative form II monomer DNA) was determined by electron microscopy. The ctDNAs showed significant differences in their sizes, and their molecular weights ranged from 85.4 - 10(6) for corn ctDNA to 96.7 - 10(6) for lettuce ctDNA. Each of these ctDNAs contained 3-4% of the circular molecules as circular dimers and 1-2% of the circular molecules as catenated dimes. The molecular complexity of these ctDNAs was studied by renaturation kinetics using T4 DNA as a standard. The molecular weights of the unique sequences of the ctDNAs ranged from 83.7 - 10(6) for oat ctDNA to 93.1 - 10(6) for lettuce ctDNA, which are in excellent agreement with the sizes of the circular ctDNA molecules... 相似文献

Potosensitized formation of 8-hydroxyguanine in DNA by riboflavin was observed. A reaction mechanism involving guanine radical cation and hydration reaction was proposed. This hypothesis was confirmed by the incorporation of [18O]-atom within guanine moiety in isotopic experiments using [18O]-H2O. Photosensitized formation of oh8Gua by riboflavin was also observed in cellular DNA. 相似文献

The saturation hybridization between spinach chloroplast (ct) DNA and spinach 125I-labelled chloroplast tRNA has shown that about 1.1% of the spinach ctDNA codes for tRNAs. The observed hybridization is a result of specific base-pairing as shown by competition hybridization experiments and thermal stability of the ctDNA-tRNA hybrids. The amount of hybridization shows that spinach ctDNA contains about 40 tRNA genes. Similar hybridization studies have shown that corn ctDNA contains about 28 tRNA genes. The cross-hybridizations between ctDNA and tRNAs of corn, spinach and pea have shown that tRNAs in chloroplasts of higher plants have undergone significant divergence. The pea and spinach tRNAs have been found to have 50% of the base sequences in common. The corn tRNAs have been found to have only about 30% of the base sequences in common with pea and spinach. These data have been confirmed by extensive heterologous competition experiments and thermal stability of the heterologous DNA-tRNA hybrids. The experiments have also shown that the base sequences of tRNAs common in all three plants are the same. 相似文献

The cellular content of chloroplast DNA in Euglena gracilis has been quantitatively determined. DNA was extracted from Euglena cells at various stages of chloroplast development and renatured in the presence of trace amounts of 3H-labeled chloroplast DNA. From the kinetics of renaturation of the 3H-labeled chloroplast DNA, compared with the kinetics of renaturation of excess nonradioactive chloroplast DNA, the fraction of cellular DNA represented by chloroplast DNA was calculated. The content of chloroplast DNA was found to increase from 4.9 to 14.6% of cellular DNA during light-induced chloroplast development. Correcting for the change in DNA mass per cell, the number of copies of chloroplast DNA is found to vary from 1400 to 2900 per cell. During this developmental transition, the cellular content of the chloroplast ribosomal RNA genes varies from 1900 to 5200 copies per cell. The ratio of the number of copies of rRNA genes to chloroplast genomes per cell remains in the range of 1-2 throughout chloroplast development, ruling out selective amplification of chloroplast rRNA genes as a means of regulation of rRNA gene expression. Direct measurement of the number of rRNA cistrons per 9.2 X 10(7) dalton genome yields a value of 1 or 2. 相似文献

DNA strand break and 8-hydroxyguanine formation induced by 2-hydroxyestradiol dispersed in liposomes
Miura T Muraoka S Fujimoto Y Zhao K 《The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology》2000,74(3):93-98
DNA damage induced by estrogens dispersed in liposomes was investigated. 2-Hydroxyestradiol (2HOE(2)) and 4-hydroxyestradiol (4HOE(2)), but not estrone, estradiol-17beta or estriol, caused strand break of plasmid DNA damage in the presence of ADP-Fe(3+). The catechol structure may be necessary for DNA damage. When DNA was incubated with 2HOE(2) for a long time (24 h), DNA damage was induced even at very low concentrations. Adding hydrogen peroxide markedly enhanced the sensitivity of DNA to the attack by 2HOE(2). Hydroxyl radical (HO.) scavengers strongly inhibited the 2HOE(2)-induced DNA damage, and EDTA partially inhibited DNA damage. However, 2HOE(2) caused 8-hydroxyguanine formation from calf thymus DNA only in the presence of EDTA-Fe(3+), but not ADP-Fe(3+). In addition, deoxyribose, which is a detective molecule of HO(.), was not degraded by 2HOE(2) in the presence of ADP-Fe(3+). Upon adding EDTA 2HOE(2) rapidly degraded deoxyribose. These results suggest that DNA strand break caused by 2HOE(2) in the presence of ADP-Fe(3+) was due to ferryl ion rather than HO(.), whereas 8-hydroxyguanine (8HOG) induced by 2HOE(2) in the presence of EDTA-Fe(3+) was due to HO(.). 相似文献

Involvement of mammalian OGG1(MMH) in excision of the 8-hydroxyguanine residue in DNA 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

8-Hydroxyguanine (7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine, abbreviated as 8-OH-G or 8-oxoG) is the site of a frequent mutagenic DNA lesion produced by oxidative damage. MutM of E. coli and OGG1 of Saccharomyces cervisiae are known to possess 8-OH-G glycosylase and apurinic (AP) site lyase activity. cDNA clones of four isoforms (types 1a, 1b, 1c, and 2) of human OGG1 homologs (hMMH) were isolated. In order to examine whether expression of hMMH (hOGG1) protein actually occurs in human cells, we prepared type 1a specific antibody, and by using this antibody, we showed that type 1a protein isolated from HeLaS3 has 8-OH-G glycosylase/lyase activity. Furthermore, we showed that type 1a protein is a major enzyme for repair of the 8-OH-G lesion in human cells. In our second study, we generated a mouse line carrying an inactivated mutant Mmh allele by targeted gene disruption. Liver extracts of Mmh homozygous mutant mice were found to have loss of the nicking activity for the 8-OH-G site. In addition, the amount of endogenous 8-OH-G in liver DNA of the homozygous mice increased linearly with age, reaching 7-fold increase in 14 week old mice, over that of wild-type or heterozygous mice. Furthermore, when homozygous mice were fed the oxygen radical-forming agent KBrO3, to provide oxidative stress, the level of 8-OH-G in kidney DNA was tremendously increased: more than 200-fold as that of control mice without oxidative stress after 12 weeks of age. These results indicate that Ogg1/Mmh plays an essential role in the repair of the 8-OH-G residue in DNA produced by oxidative stress. 相似文献

Benzyladenine (BA) treatment was found to induce chloroplast DNA (ctDNA) synthesis after it had stopped in primary leaves of light-grown intact bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The leaves were treated with BA from 7 days after sowing. Chloroplasts were isolated and the ctDNA content per chloroplast was determined. Chloroplast division occurred until 13 days after sowing in untreated leaves. BA stimulated the division keeping the level of ctDNA content per chloroplast the same as that in the untreated controls. After the division period, the ctDNA content per chloroplast increased in BA-treated leaves, but not in controls. Consequently, ctDNA per leaf (or per cell) increased immediately after the beginning of BA treatment, but remained constant in the control leaves. 相似文献

8-hydroxyguanine (8-oxoguanine; oh8Gua) DNA glycosylase (OGG1) repairs oh8Gua, a highly mutagenic oxidative DNA damage. In the present study, we compared two strains of senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) expressing senescence-prone phenotypes, SAMP1 and SAMP8, with one strain of SAM expressing senescence-resistant phenotype, SAMR1. We found three distinct characteristics of OGG1 in SAMPs: (i) low activity (10-40% of the SAMRI enzyme in all organs and ages observed), (ii) thermolability, and (iii) mutation from Arg (CGG) in SAMR1 to Trp (TGG) at codon 304. There was no difference in the levels of mRNA and protein. As expected, oh8Gua level in tissues was higher in the SAMPs. In contrast, O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase, which repairs alkylated DNA, showed no difference in its activity. The impairment of oh8Gua repair activity caused by the 304 mutation in OGG1 may be one of the factors contributing to the high somatic mutation rate and the accelerated senescence observed in these strains. 相似文献

During development of the first leaf of breadwheat (Triticum aestivum L.) the number of chloroplasts per mesophyll cell increases between three- and four-fold. To establish if chloroplast replication is accompanied by endoreduplication, the nuclear DNA content of the cells was determined by chemical assay of isolated nuclei from mesophyll protoplasts and by microdensitometry of nuclei in mesophyll tissue. The DNA content of the nuclei was constant (27 to 32 pg) at each phase of chloroplast replication. Approximately 93% of the cells had a nuclear DNA content close to the 2C value of 32 pg. It is concluded that chloroplast replication is not dependent on nuclear endoreduplication in seedling leaves of wheat. 相似文献

In many species of plants, the dispersal of genes is mediated by the movement of both seeds and pollen. The relative contributions of seed and pollen movement to total gene flow can be difficult to estimate. Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) may prove useful for resolving this problem. Over the past several years, studies of numerous species of plants have shown that intraspecific variation in cpDNA is often sufficiently abundant to serve as a marker for studies of gene flow. Recent theoretical models have shown that estimates of population structure based on cpDNA polymorphism should be especially sensitive to the impact of seed movement on gene flow, because cpDNA is often maternally inherited. 相似文献
