Abstract: | The reaction of bacteriophage T7-DNA with the radioactive diastereomeric benzo(a)pyrene-diol-epoxides, (±) [, ]-7β,8α-dihydroxy-9α,10β-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyrene, and (±) [, ]-7β,8α-dihydroxy-9β,19β-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(1)pyrene, was investigated. Chromatographic analysis of digests of the DNA allowed the distinction of characteristic deoxynucleoside adduct peaks for the two benzo(a)pyrene-diol-epoxides. Our results, together with data from the literature, allow the identification of these adducts as mostly N2-(10-7β,8α,9α-trihydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyreney1)deoxyguanosine and N2-(10-7β,8α,9β-trihydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyreney1)deoxyguanosine, respectively. DNA-benzo(a)pyrene adducts with the same chromatographic properties were formed in mouse embryo fibroblasts upon treatment with benzo(a)pyrene. |
