Mutagenic Replication of N2-Deoxyguanosine Benzo[a]pyrene Adducts by Escherichia coli DNA Polymerase I and Sulfolobus solfataricus DNA Polymerase IV.

ABSTRACT: Benzo[a]pyrene, a potent human carcinogen, is metabolized in vivo to a diol epoxide that reacts with the N2-position of guanine to produce N2-BP-dG adducts. These adducts are mutagenic causing G to T transversions. These adducts block replicative polymerases but can be bypassed by the Y-family translesion synthesis polymerases. The mechanisms by which mutagenic bypass occurs is not well-known. We have evaluated base pairing structures using atomic substitution of the dNTP with two stereoisomers, 2'-deoxy-N-[(7R,8S,9R,10S)-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-7,8,9-trihydroxybenzo[a]pyren-10-yl]guanosine and 2'-deoxy-N-[(7S,8R,9S,10R)-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-7,8,9-trihydroxybenzo[a]pyren-10-yl]guanosine. We have examined the kinetics of incorporation of 1-deaza-dATP, 7-deaza-dATP, 2'-deoxyinosine triphosphate, and 7-deaza-dGTP, analogues of dATP and dGTP in which single atoms are changed. Changes in rate will occur if that atom provided a critical interaction in the transition state of the reaction. We examined two polymerases, Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I (Kf) and Sulfolobus solfataricus DNA polymerase IV (Dpo4), as models of a high fidelity and TLS polymerase, respectively. We found that with Kf, substitution of the nitrogens on the Watson-Crick face of the dNTPs resulted in decreased rate of reactions. This result is consistent with a Hoogsteen base pair in which the template N2-BP-dG flipped from the anti to syn conformation. With Dpo4, while the substitution did not affect the rate of reaction, the amplitude of the reaction decreased with all substitutions. This result suggests that Dpo4 bypasses N2-BP-dG via Hoogsteen base pairs but that the flipped nucleotide can be either the dNTP or the template.

Project description:Aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1)) is oxidized to an epoxide in vivo, which forms an N7-dG DNA adduct (AFB(1)-N7-dG). The AFB(1)-N7-dG can rearrange to a formamidopyrimidine (AFB(1)-FAPY) derivative. Both AFB(1)-N7-dG and the β-anomer of the AFB(1)-FAPY adduct yield G→T transversions in Escherichia coli, but the latter is more mutagenic. We show that the Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 DNA polymerase IV (Dpo4) bypasses AFB(1)-N7-dG in an error-free manner but conducts error-prone replication past the AFB(1)-FAPY adduct, including misinsertion of dATP, consistent with the G→T mutations observed in E. coli. Three ternary (Dpo4-DNA-dNTP) structures with AFB(1)-N7-dG adducted template:primers have been solved. These demonstrate insertion of dCTP opposite the AFB(1)-N7-dG adduct, and correct vs incorrect insertion of dATP vs dTTP opposite the 5'-template neighbor dT from a primed AFB(1)-N7-dG:dC pair. The insertion of dTTP reveals hydrogen bonding between the template N3 imino proton and the O(2) oxygen of dTTP, and between the template T O(4) oxygen and the N3 imino proton of dTTP, perhaps explaining why this polymerase does not efficiently catalyze phosphodiester bond formation from this mispair. The AFB(1)-N7-dG maintains the 5'-intercalation of the AFB(1) moiety observed in DNA. The bond between N7-dG and C8 of the AFB(1) moiety remains in plane with the alkylated guanine, creating a 16° inclination of the AFB(1) moiety with respect to the guanine. A binary (Dpo4-DNA) structure with an AFB(1)-FAPY adducted template:primer also maintains 5'-intercalation of the AFB(1) moiety. The β-deoxyribose anomer is observed. Rotation about the FAPY C5-N(5) bond orients the bond between N(5) and C8 of the AFB(1) moiety out of plane in the 5'-direction, with respect to the FAPY base. The formamide group extends in the 3'-direction. This improves stacking of the AFB(1) moiety above the 5'-face of the FAPY base, as compared to the AFB(1)-N7-dG adduct. Ternary structures with AFB(1)-β-FAPY adducted template:primers show correct vs incorrect insertion of dATP vs dTTP opposite the 5'-template neighbor dT from a primed AFB(1)-β-FAPY:dC pair. For dATP, the oxygen atom of the FAPY formamide group participates in a water-mediated hydrogen bond with Arg332. The insertion of dTTP yields a structure similar to that observed for the AFB(1)-N7-dG adduct. The differential accommodation of these AFB(1) adducts within the active site may, in part, modulate lesion bypass.

Project description:Oligonucleotides were synthesized containing the 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo adduct, which is derived from the reaction of dGuo and the lipid peroxidation product 4-oxo-2-nonenal. The in vitro replication of 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo by the model Y-family polymerase Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 DNA Polymerase IV (Dpo4) was examined in two sequences. The extension products were sequenced using an improved LC-ESI-MS/MS protocol developed in our laboratories, and the results were compared to that of the 1,N(2)-etheno-dGuo adduct in the same sequence contexts. Both etheno adducts were highly miscoding when situated in 5'-TXG-3' local sequence contexts with <4% of the extension products being derived from error-free bypass. The major extension products resulted from the misinsertion of Ade opposite the adduct and a one-base deletion. The major extension products from replication of the etheno lesions in a 5'-CXG-3' local sequence context were the result of misinsertion of Ade, a one-base deletion, and error-free bypass. Other minor extension products were also identified. The 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo lesion resulted in a larger frequency of misinsertion of Ade, whereas the 1,N(2)-etheno-dGuo gave more of the one-base deletion product. Conformational studies of duplex DNA containing the 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo in a 5'-TXG-3' sequence context by NMR indicated the presence of a pH-dependent conformational transition, likely involving the glycosyl bond at the adducted guanosine; the pK(a) for this transition was lower than that observed for the 1,N(2)-epsilon-dGuo lesion. However, the 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo lesion, the complementary Cyt, and both flanking base pairs remained disordered at all pH values, which is attributed to the presence of the hydrophobic heptyl group of the 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo lesion. The altered pK(a) value and the structural disorder at the 7-(2-oxoheptyl)-etheno-dGuo lesion site, as compared to the same sequence containing the 1,N(2)-etheno-dGuo, may contribute to higher frequency of misinsertion of Ade.

Project description:Translesion DNA polymerases are more efficient at bypass of many DNA adducts than replicative polymerases. Previous work with the translesion polymerase Sulfolobus solfataricus Dpo4 showed a decrease in catalytic efficiency during bypass of bulky N(2)-alkyl guanine (G) adducts with N(2)-isobutylG showing the largest effect, decreasing approximately 120-fold relative to unmodified deoxyguanosine (Zhang, H., Eoff, R. L., Egli, M., Guengerich, F. P. Versatility of Y-family Sulfolobus solfataricus DNA polymerase Dpo4 in translation synthesis past bulky N(2)-alkylguanine adducts. J. Biol. Chem. 2009; 284: 3563-3576). The effect of adduct size on individual catalytic steps has not been easy to decipher because of the difficulty of distinguishing early noncovalent steps from phosphodiester bond formation. We developed a mutant with a single Trp (T239W) to monitor fluorescence changes associated with a conformational change that occurs after binding a correct 2'-deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (Beckman, J. W., Wang, Q., Guengerich, F. P. Kinetic analysis of nucleotide insertion by a Y-family DNA polymerase reveals conformational change both prior to and following phosphodiester bond formation as detected by tryptophan fluorescence. J. Biol. Chem. 2008; 283: 36711-36723) and, in the present work, utilized this approach to monitor insertion opposite N(2)-alkylG-modified oligonucleotides. We estimated maximal rates for the forward conformational step, which coupled with measured rates of product formation yielded rate constants for the conformational step (both directions) during insertion opposite several N(2)-alkylG adducts. With the smaller N(2)-alkylG adducts, the conformational rate constants were not changed dramatically (<3-fold), indicating that the more sensitive steps are phosphodiester bond formation and partitioning into inactive complexes. With the larger adducts (>or=(2-naphthyl)methyl), the absence of fluorescence changes suggests impaired ability to undergo an appropriate conformational change, consistent with previous structural work.

Project description:trans-4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is the major peroxidation product of ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in vivo. Michael addition of the N(2)-amino group of dGuo to HNE followed by ring closure of N1 onto the aldehyde results in four diastereomeric 1,N(2)-dGuo (1,N(2)-HNE-dGuo) adducts. The (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo adduct was incorporated into the 18-mer templates 5'-d(TCATXGAATCCTTCCCCC)-3' and d(TCACXGAATCCTTCCCCC)-3', where X = (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo adduct. These differed in the identity of the template 5'-neighbor base, which was either Thy or Cyt, respectively. Each of these templates was annealed with either a 13-mer primer 5'-d(GGGGGAAGGATTC)-3' or a 14-mer primer 5'-d(GGGGGAAGGATTCC)-3'. The addition of dNTPs to the 13-mer primer allowed analysis of dNTP insertion opposite to the (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo adduct, whereas the 14-mer primer allowed analysis of dNTP extension past a primed (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo:dCyd pair. The Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 DNA polymerase IV (Dpo4) belongs to the Y-family of error-prone polymerases. Replication bypass studies in vitro reveal that this polymerase inserted dNTPs opposite the (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo adduct in a sequence-specific manner. If the template 5'-neighbor base was dCyt, the polymerase inserted primarily dGTP, whereas if the template 5'-neighbor base was dThy, the polymerase inserted primarily dATP. The latter event would predict low levels of Gua → Thy mutations during replication bypass when the template 5'-neighbor base is dThy. When presented with a primed (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo:dCyd pair, the polymerase conducted full-length primer extension. Structures for ternary (Dpo4-DNA-dNTP) complexes with all four template-primers were obtained. For the 18-mer:13-mer template-primers in which the polymerase was confronted with the (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo adduct, the (6S,8R,11S)-1,N(2)-dGuo lesion remained in the ring-closed conformation at the active site. The incoming dNTP, either dGTP or dATP, was positioned with Watson-Crick pairing opposite the template 5'-neighbor base, dCyt or dThy, respectively. In contrast, for the 18-mer:14-mer template-primers with a primed (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo:dCyd pair, ring opening of the adduct to the corresponding N(2)-dGuo aldehyde species occurred. This allowed Watson-Crick base pairing at the (6S,8R,11S)-HNE-1,N(2)-dGuo:dCyd pair.

Project description:DNA damage that stalls replicative polymerases can be bypassed with the Y-family polymerases. These polymerases have more open active sites that can accommodate modified nucleotides. The lack of protein-DNA interactions that select for Watson-Crick base pairs correlate with the lowered fidelity of replication. Interstrand hydrogen bonds appear to play a larger role in dNTP selectivity. The mechanism by which purine-purine mispairs are formed and extended was examined with Solfolobus solfataricus DNA polymerase IV, a member of the RAD30A subfamily of the Y-family polymerases, as is pol eta. The structures of the purine-purine mispairs were examined by comparing the kinetics of mispair formation with adenine versus 1-deaza- and 7-deazaadenine and guanine versus 7-deazaguanine at four positions in the DNA, the incoming dNTP, the template base, and both positions of the terminal base pair. The time course of insertion of a single dNTP was examined with a polymerase concentration of 50 nM and a DNA concentration of 25 nM with various concentrations of dNTP. The time courses were fitted to a first-order equation, and the first-order rate constants were plotted against the dNTP concentration to produce k pol and K d (dNTP) values. A decrease in k pol/ K d (dNTP) associated with the deazapurine substitution would indicate that the position is involved in a crucial hydrogen bond. During correct base pair formation, the adenine to 1-deazaadenine substitution in both the incoming dNTP and template base resulted in a >1000-fold decrease in k pol/ K d (dNTP), indicating that interstrand hydrogen bonds are important in correcting base pair formation. During formation of purine-purine mispairs, the k pol/ K d (dNTP) values for the insertion of dATP and dGTP opposite 7-deazaadenine and 7-deazaguanine were decreased >10-fold with respect to those of the unmodified nucleotides. In addition, the rate of incorporation of 1-deaza-dATP opposite guanine was decreased 5-fold. These results suggest that during mispair formation the newly forming base pair is in a Hoogsteen geometry with the incoming dNTP in the anti conformation and the template base in the syn conformation. These results indicate that Dpo4 holds the incoming dNTP in the normal anti conformation while allowing the template nucleotide to change conformations to allow reaction to occur. This result may be functionally relevant in the replication of damaged DNA in that the polymerase may allow the template to adopt multiple configurations.
