HO* radicals induce an unexpected high proportion of tandem base lesions refractory to repair by DNA glycosylases.


ABSTRACT: Reaction of HO(*) radicals with double-stranded calf thymus DNA produces high levels of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) and, to a minor extent, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyadenosine (8-oxodAdo). Formation of the hydroxylated purine lesions is explained by addition of HO(*) to the C8 position of the purine moiety. It has been reported that tandem lesions containing a formylamine residue neighboring 8-oxodGuo could be produced through addition of a transiently generated pyrimidine peroxyl radical onto the C8 of an adjacent purine base. Formation of such tandem lesions accounted for approximately 10% of the total 8-oxodGuo. In the present work we show that addition of HO(*) onto the C8 of purine accounts for only approximately 5% of the generated 8-oxodGuo. About 50% of the 8-hydroxylated purine lesions, including 8-oxodGuo and 8-oxodAdo, are involved in tandem damage and are produced by peroxyl addition onto the C8 of a vicinal purine base. In addition, the remaining 45% of the 8-oxodGuo are produced by an electron transfer reaction, providing an explanation for the higher yield of formation of 8-oxodGuo compared to 8-oxodAdo. Interestingly, we show that >40% of the 8-oxodGuo involved in tandem lesions is refractory to excision by DNA glycosylases. Altogether our results demonstrate that, subsequently to a single oxidation event, peroxidation reactions significantly increase the yield of formation of hydroxylated purine modifications, generating a high proportion of tandem lesions partly refractory to base excision repair.
