2'-Fluorinated Hydantoins as Chemical Biology Tools for Base Excision Repair Glycosylases.

ABSTRACT: The guanine oxidation products, 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh) and spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), are mutagenic and toxic base lesions that are removed by Fpg, Nei, and the Nei-like (NEIL) glycosylases as the first step in base excision repair (BER). The hydantoins are excellent substrates for the NEIL glycosylases in a variety of DNA contexts beyond canonical duplex DNA, implicating the potential impact of repair activity on a multitude of cellular processes. In order to prepare stable derivatives as chemical biology tools, oligonucleotides containing fluorine at the 2'-position of the sugar of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine2'-F-OG) were synthesized in ribo and arabino configuration. Selective oxidation of 2'-F-OG within a DNA oligonucleotide provided the corresponding 2'-F-Gh or 2'-F-Sp containing DNA. The 2'-F-hydantoins in duplex DNA were found to be highly resistant to the glycosylase activity of Fpg and NEIL1 compared to the unmodified lesion substrates. Surprisingly, however, some glycosylase-mediated base removal from both the 2'-F-ribo- and 2'-F-arabinohydantoin duplex DNA was observed. Notably, the associated ?-lyase strand scission reaction of the 2'-F-arabinohydantoins was inhibited such that the glycosylases were "stalled" at the Schiff-base intermediate. Fpg and NEIL1 showed high affinity for the 2'-F-Gh duplexes in both ribo and arabino configurations. However, binding affinity assessed using catalytically inactive variants of Fpg and NEIL1 indicated higher affinity for the 2'-F-riboGh-containing duplexes. The distinct features of glycosylase processing of 2'-F-ribohydantoins and 2'-F-arabinohydantoins illustrate their utility to reveal structural insight into damage recognition and excision by NEIL and related glycosylases and provide opportunities for delineating the impact of lesion formation and repair in cells.

Project description:A growing number of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster cofactors have been identified in DNA repair proteins. MutY and its homologs are base excision repair (BER) glycosylases that prevent mutations associated with the common oxidation product of guanine (G), 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG) by catalyzing adenine (A) base excision from inappropriately formed OG:A mispairs. The finding of an [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster cofactor in MutY, Endonuclease III, and structurally similar BER enzymes was surprising and initially thought to represent an example of a purely structural role for the cofactor. However, in the two decades subsequent to the initial discovery, purification and in vitro analysis of bacterial MutYs and mammalian homologs, such as human MUTYH and mouse Mutyh, have demonstrated that proper Fe-S cluster coordination is required for OG:A substrate recognition and adenine excision. In addition, the Fe-S cluster in MutY has been shown to be capable of redox chemistry in the presence of DNA. The work in our laboratory aimed at addressing the importance of the MutY Fe-S cluster has involved a battery of approaches, with the overarching hypothesis that understanding the role(s) of the Fe-S cluster is intimately associated with understanding the biological and chemical properties of MutY and its unique damaged DNA substrate as a whole. In this chapter, we focus on methods of enzyme expression and purification, detailed enzyme kinetics, and DNA affinity assays. The methods described herein have not only been leveraged to provide insight into the roles of the MutY Fe-S cluster but have also been provided crucial information needed to delineate the impact of inherited variants of the human homolog MUTYH associated with a colorectal cancer syndrome known as MUTYH-associated polyposis or MAP. Notably, many MAP-associated variants have been found adjacent to the Fe-S cluster further underscoring the intimate relationship between the cofactor, MUTYH-mediated DNA repair, and disease.
