RESUMEN

Cycling cells replicate their DNA during the S phase through a defined temporal program known as replication timing. Mutation frequencies, epigenetic chromatin states, and transcriptional activities are different for genomic regions that are replicated early and late in the S phase. Here, we found from ChIP-Seq analysis that DNA polymerase (Pol) κ is enriched in early-replicating genomic regions in HEK293T cells. In addition, by feeding cells with N 2-heptynyl-2'-deoxyguanosine followed by click chemistry-based enrichment and high-throughput sequencing, we observed elevated Pol κ activities in genomic regions that are replicated early in the S phase. On the basis of the established functions of Pol κ in accurate and efficient nucleotide insertion opposite endogenously induced N 2-modified dG lesions, our work suggests that active engagement of Pol κ may contribute to diminished mutation rates observed in early-replicating regions of the human genome, including cancer genomes. Together, our work expands the functions of Pol κ and offered a plausible mechanism underlying replication timing-dependent mutation accrual in the human genome.

RESUMEN

The N-(2-deoxy-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-urea DNA lesion forms following hydrolytic fragmentation of cis-5R,6S- and trans-5R,6R-dihydroxy-5,6-dihydrothymidine (thymine glycol, Tg) or from oxidation of 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) and subsequent hydrolysis. It interconverts between α and ß deoxyribose anomers. Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing this adduct are efficiently incised by unedited (K242) and edited (R242) forms of the hNEIL1 glycosylase. The structure of a complex between the active site unedited mutant CΔ100 P2G hNEIL1 (K242) glycosylase and double-stranded (ds) DNA containing a urea lesion reveals a pre-cleavage intermediate, in which the Gly2 N-terminal amine forms a conjugate with the deoxyribose C1' of the lesion, with the urea moiety remaining intact. This structure supports a proposed catalytic mechanism in which Glu3-mediated protonation of O4' facilitates attack at deoxyribose C1'. The deoxyribose is in the ring-opened configuration with the O4' oxygen protonated. The electron density of Lys242 suggests the 'residue 242-in conformation' associated with catalysis. This complex likely arises because the proton transfer steps involving Glu6 and Lys242 are hindered due to Glu6-mediated H-bonding with the Gly2 and the urea lesion. Consistent with crystallographic data, biochemical analyses show that the CΔ100 P2G hNEIL1 (K242) glycosylase exhibits a residual activity against urea-containing dsDNA.

RESUMEN

O6-Methyl-2'-deoxyguanosine (O6-MeG) is one of the most common DNA lesions and arises as a consequence of both xenobiotic carcinogens and endogenous methylation by S-adenosylmethionine. O6-MeG frequently causes G-to-A mutations during DNA replication due to the misincorporation of dTTP and continued DNA synthesis. Efforts to detect DNA adducts such as O6-MeG, and to understand their impacts on DNA structure and function, have motivated the creation of nucleoside analogs with altered base moieties to afford a more favorable interaction with the adduct as compared to the unmodified nucleotide. Such analogs directed at O6-MeG include benzimidazolinone and benzimidazole nucleotides, as well as their extended π surface analogs naphthimidazolinone and napthimidazole derivatives. These analogs form a more stable pair with O6-MeG than with G, most likely due to a combination of H-bonding and stacking. While extending the π surface of the analogs enhances their performance as adduct-directed probes, the precise origins of the increased affinity between the synthetic analogs and O6-MeG remain unclear. To better understand relevant conformational and pairing properties, we used X-ray crystallography and analyzed the structures of the DNA duplexes with naphthimidazolinone inserted opposite G or O6-MeG. The structures reveal a complex interaction of the analog found either in an anti orientation and stacked inside the duplex, either above or below G or O6-MeG, or in a syn orientation and paired opposite G with formation of a single H-bond. The experimental structural data are consistent with the stabilizing effect of the synthetic analog observed in UV melting experiments and calculations and moreover reveal that the origin of these observations appears to be superior stacking between O6-MeG and the extended π system of the synthetic probe.

RESUMEN

Abasic (AP) sites are one of the most common forms of DNA damage. The deoxyribose ring of AP sites undergoes anomerization between α and ß configurations, via an electrophilic aldehyde intermediate. In sequences where an adenine residue is located on the opposing strand and offset 1 nt to the 3' side of the AP site, the nucleophilic N6-dA amino group can react with the AP aldehyde residue to form an interstrand cross-link (ICL). Here, we present an experimentally determined structure of the dA-AP ICL by NMR spectroscopy. The ICL was constructed in the oligodeoxynucleotide 5'-d(T1A2T3G4T5C6T7A8A9G10T11T12C13A14T15C16T17A18)-3':5'-d(T19A20G21A22T23G24A25A26C27X28T29A30G31A32C33A34T35A36)-3' (X=AP site), with the dA-AP ICL forming between A8 and X28. The NMR spectra indicated an ordered structure for the cross-linked DNA duplex and afforded detailed spectroscopic resonance assignments. Structural refinement, using molecular dynamics calculations restrained by NOE data (rMD), revealed the structure of the ICL. In the dA-AP ICL, the 2'-deoxyribosyl ring of the AP site was ring-closed and in the ß configuration. Juxtapositioning the N6-dA amino group and the aldehydic C1 of the AP site within bonding distance while simultaneously maintaining two flanking unpaired A9 and T29 bases stacked within the DNA is accomplished by the unwinding of the DNA at the ICL. The structural data is discussed in the context of recent studies describing the replication-dependent unhooking of the dA-AP ICL by the base excision repair glycosylase NEIL3.

RESUMEN

Dietary exposure to aflatoxins is a significant risk factor in the development of hepatocellular carcinomas. Following bioactivation by microsomal P450s, the reaction of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) with guanine (Gua) in DNA leads to the formation of stable, imidazole ring-opened 8,9-dihydro-8-(2,6-diamino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimid-5-yl-formamido)-9-hydroxyaflatoxin B1 (AFB1-FapyGua) adducts. In contrast to most base modifications that result in destabilization of the DNA duplex, the AFB1-FapyGua adduct increases the thermal stability of DNA via 5'-interface intercalation and base-stacking interactions. Although it was anticipated that this stabilization might make these lesions difficult to repair relative to helix distorting modifications, prior studies have shown that both the nucleotide and base excision repair pathways participate in the removal of the AFB1-FapyGua adduct. Specifically for base excision repair, we previously showed that the DNA glycosylase NEIL1 excises AFB1-FapyGua and catalyzes strand scission in both synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides and liver DNA of exposed mice. Since it is anticipated that error-prone replication bypass of unrepaired AFB1-FapyGua adducts contributes to cellular transformation and carcinogenesis, the structural and thermodynamic parameters that modulate the efficiencies of these repair pathways are of considerable interest. We hypothesized that the DNA sequence context in which the AFB1-FapyGua adduct is formed might modulate duplex stability and consequently alter the efficiencies of NEIL1-initiated repair. To address this hypothesis, site-specific AFB1-FapyGua adducts were synthesized in three sequence contexts, with the 5' neighbor nucleotide being varied. DNA structural stability analyses were conducted using UV absorbance- and NMR-based melting experiments. These data revealed differentials in thermal stabilities associated with the 5'-neighbor base pair. Single turnover kinetic analyses using the NEIL1 glycosylase demonstrated corresponding sequence-dependent differences in the repair of this adduct, such that there was an inverse correlation between the stabilization of the duplex and the efficiency of NEIL1-mediated catalysis.

RESUMEN

Dietary exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a recognized risk factor for developing hepatocellular carcinoma. The mutational signature of AFB1 is characterized by high-frequency base substitutions, predominantly G>T transversions, in a limited subset of trinucleotide sequences. The 8,9-dihydro-8-(2,6-diamino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimid-5-yl-formamido)-9-hydroxyaflatoxin B1 (AFB1-FapyGua) has been implicated as the primary DNA lesion responsible for AFB1-induced mutations. This study evaluated the mutagenic potential of AFB1-FapyGua in four sequence contexts, including hot- and cold-spot sequences as apparent in the mutational signature. Vectors containing site-specific AFB1-FapyGua lesions were replicated in primate cells and the products of replication were isolated and sequenced. Consistent with the role of AFB1-FapyGua in AFB1-induced mutagenesis, AFB1-FapyGua was highly mutagenic in all four sequence contexts, causing G>T transversions and other base substitutions at frequencies of ~80%-90%. These data suggest that the unique mutational signature of AFB1 is not explained by sequence-dependent fidelity of replication past AFB1-FapyGua lesions.
