Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) transfer from (3)H-thymine-labeled Hfr cells has been measured by determining the amount of radioactivity remaining after selective lysis of the donor cells in the mating mixture. DNA transfer was less effectively reduced by ultraviolet irradiation of excision-defective Hfr cells than was the yield of recombinants. The buoyant density of DNA transferred from unirradi...
Mature Arbacia eggs were extracted with cold dilute perchloric acid, the extract concentrated, and the concentrate digested in hot perchloric acid. Thymine was recovered from the digest by paper chromatography, and the amount per egg found to be about 5 times the amount per sperm. This was the amount expected from previous experiments and is believed to represent all or almost all of the thymin...
We demonstrate how the orientation and ordering of DNA bases in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) and ambient environments can be determined using complementary spectroscopic methods. Near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) with fluorescence detection, X-ray photoelectron (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies are used to quantify the coverage, chemical composition, orienta...
Bacteriophage T5 induces a deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase) activity during infection of Escherichia coli. A T5 mutant (T5 dut) unable to induce this dUTPase activity has been isolated. Although this mutant is viable, the E. coli dUTPase activity is not sufficiently active to exclude uracil from the progeny DNA and about 3% of the thymine is replaced by uracil. When th...
We have determined the three-dimensional (3D) structure of DNA duplex that includes tandem Hg(II)-mediated T-T base pairs (thymine-Hg(II)-thymine, T-Hg(II)-T) with NMR spectroscopy in solution. This is the first 3D structure of metallo-DNA (covalently metallated DNA) composed exclusively of 'NATURAL' bases. The T-Hg(II)-T base pairs whose chemical structure was determined with the (15)N NMR spe...
Femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy was combined with photoelectron-photoion coincidence detection to investigate the electronic structure and dynamics of isolated adenine (A) and thymine (T) dimers and the adenine-thymine (AT) base pair. The photoelectron spectra show that pipi* and npi* states are only weakly perturbed in the hydrogen-bound dimers as compared to the monomers. For cationic bas...
The physical and biochemical properties of two pairs of synthetic DNA template-primers were investigated. The copolymer poly(dA-dU) . poly(dA-dU) and the homopolymer duplex poly(dA). poly(dU) were characterized by a lower Tm and by a higher buoyant density value than the respective thymine polynucleotides poly(dA-dT) . poly(dA-dT) and poly(dA) . poly(dT). The polymerizing and the primer terminu...
DNA methylation is a major epigenetic mechanism for gene silencing. Whereas methyltransferases mediate cytosine methylation, it is less clear how unmethylated regions in mammalian genomes are protected from de novo methylation and whether an active demethylating activity is involved. Here, we show that either knockout or catalytic inactivation of the DNA repair enzyme thymine DNA glycosylase (T...
Peptide nucleic acids (PNA) are mimics with normal bases connected to a pseudopeptide chain that obey Watson-Crick rules to form stable duplexes with itself and natural nucleic acids. This has focused attention on PNA as therapeutic or diagnostic reagents. Duplexes formed with PNA mirror some but not all properties of DNA. One fascinating aspect of PNA biochemistry is their reaction with enzyme...
Previous investigations have shown that the incorporation in vitro of formate, formaldehyde, or the beta carbon of serine into thymine compounds of normal lymphatic tissues and tumors is greatly increased when deoxycytidine, deoxyuridine, or cytidine are added to the incubation medium (1, 2). The present study demonstrates that in the above tissues (a) methyl cytosine deoxyribonucleoside is not...
