Interstrand DNA–DNA Cross-Link Formation Between Adenine Residues and Abasic Sites in Duplex DNA
The loss of a coding nucleobase from the structure of DNA is a common event that generates an abasic (Ap) site (1). Ap sites exist as an equilibrating mixture of a cyclic hemiacetal and a ring-opened aldehyde. Aldehydes are electrophilic functional groups that can form covalent adducts with nucleophilic sites in DNA. Thus, Ap sites present a potentially reactive aldehyde as part of the internal...
متن کاملInterstrand cross-link of DNA by covalently linking a pair of abasic sites.
A pair of apurinic/apyrimidinic sites formed in DNA has been covalently connected with bis(aminooxy) derivatives. The efficacy of the interstrand cross-link is associated with the structural tethering of two aminooxy groups. The interstrand cross-link constructed stable DNA scaffolds for enzyme alignment.
متن کاملAn allylic/acyclic adenosine nucleoside triphosphate for termination of DNA synthesis by DNA template-dependent polymerases.
An allylic adenosine triphosphate analog (AATP) was tested as a substrate for commercially available DNA polymerases. All but one of the enzymes assayed incorporated AATP opposite thymidine (T) with concomitant termination of the elongation reaction. A concentration of only 1 microM was sufficient for complete termination of the polymerization reaction for a short template mediated by Ampli Taq...
متن کاملTranslocation and stability of replicative DNA helicases upon encountering DNA-protein cross-links.
DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) are formed when cells are exposed to various DNA-damaging agents. Because DPCs are extremely large, steric hindrance conferred by DPCs is likely to affect many aspects of DNA transactions. In DNA replication, DPCs are first encountered by the replicative helicase that moves at the head of the replisome. However, little is known about how replicative helicases resp...
متن کاملSequential assembly of translesion DNA polymerases at UV-induced DNA damage sites
In response to DNA damage such as from UV irradiation, mammalian Y-family translesion synthesis (TLS) polymerases Polη and Rev1 colocalize with proliferating cell nuclear antigen at nuclear foci, presumably representing stalled replication sites. However, it is unclear whether the localization of one polymerase is dependent on another. Furthermore, there is no report on the in vivo characteriza...
