Abstract
Intracellular antibiotic resistance genes (iARGs) constitute the important part of wastewater ARGs and need to be efficiently removed. However, due to the dual protection of intracellular DNA by bacterial membranes and the cytoplasm, present disinfection technologies are largely inefficient in iARG degradation. Herein, we for the first time found that erythrosine (ERY, an edible dye) could efficiently degrade iARGs by producing abundant 1O2 under visible light. Seven log antibiotic-resistant bacteria were inactivated within only 1.5 min, and 6 log iARGs were completely degraded within 40 min by photosensitized ERY (5.0 mg/L). A linear relationship was established between ARG degradation rate constants and 1O2 concentrations in the ERY photosensitizing system. Surprisingly, a 3.2-fold faster degradation of iARGs than extracellular ARGs was observed, which was attributed to the unique indirect oxidation of iARGs induced by 1O2. Furthermore, ERY photosensitizing was effective for iARG degradation in real wastewater and other photosensitizers (including Rose Bengal and Phloxine B) of high 1O2 yields could also achieve efficient iARG degradation. The findings increase our knowledge of the iARG degradation preference by 1O2 and provide a new strategy of developing technologies with high 1O2 yield, like ERY photosensitizing, for efficient iARG removal.

Abstract
Alkoxyl radicals play important roles in various fields of chemistry. Understanding their reactivity is essential to applying their chemistry for industrial and biological purposes. Hydrogen-atom transfer and C-C β-scission reactions have been reported from alkoxyl radicals. The ratios of these two processes were investigated using cumyloxyl (CumO•) and tert-butoxyl radicals (t-BuO•), respectively. However, the products generated from the pair of radicals have not been investigated in detail. In this study, CumO• and t-BuO• were simultaneously generated from the photolysis of tert-butyl cumyl peroxide to understand the chemical behavior of the pair of radicals by analyzing the products and their distribution. Electron paramagnetic resonance and/or transient absorption spectroscopy analyses of radicals, including CumO• and t-BuO•, provide more information about the radicals generated during the photolysis of tert-butyl cumyl peroxide. Furthermore, the photoproducts of (3-(tert-butylperoxy)pentane-3-yl)benzene demonstrated that the ether products were formed in in-cage reactions. The triplet-sensitized reaction induced by acetophenone, which is produced from CumO•, clarified that the spin state did not affect the product distribution.

Abstract
The study disclosed herein provides for the first time a detailed experimental support for the general mechanism of the cigarette-smoke-derived chemiluminescence, as an example par excellence of the excited-state generation in a chemically complex aerosol medium. The mechanism involves chemiexcitation in a unimolecular transformation of the smoke-borne free radical species. However, the concentration of these radicals, [r∙], obeys a bimolecular (second-order) kinetics and depends on a particulate-phase content (total particulate matter, TPM) of the cigarette smoke. The decrease in [r∙] with increasing the TPM amount manifests radical-scavenging propensity of the smoke particulate phase. Astonishingly, no energy transfer takes place from the primary excited light-emitting species to luminophoric molecules abundant in the smoke. The reported results build up fundamentals of a facile chemiluminescence assay for free radical properties of the smoke. The experimental approaches developed for this study are of general scope and may be used for mechanistic elucidation of the excited-state generation in chemical systems and environments of an arbitrary complexity.

Abstract
This paper discloses for the first time the effects of the gas phase (GP) and the tar of cigarette smoke on lipid peroxidation (LPO) and on the structure of different lipid regions in liposomes. The LPO development was analysed in terms of the total unsaturation of lipids (double-bond, DB, content) and the formation of dienic conjugates (DC), ketodienes (KD), and malonic dialdehyde (MDA). As expected, the exposure of liposomes to either the GP or the tar led to a significant decrease in the DB content. However, the formation of oxidation products revealed different dynamics: MDA generation was inhibited, while the formation of DC and KD increased during the first few hours of the LPO development followed by its inhibition. The smoke constituents exhibited opposite effects on the structure of the lipid bilayer of liposomes: the GP markedly enhanced the microviscosity of liposomal membranes, whereas the tar caused a drastic lowering of microviscosity.

Abstract
DNA damage induced by photosensitization is not only responsible for the genotoxic effects of various types of drugs in the presence of light, but is also relevant for some of the adverse effects of sunlight, in particular in the UVA and visible range of the spectrum. The types of DNA modifications induced are very diverse and include pyrimidine dimers, covalent adducts, various base modifications generated by oxidation, single-strand breaks and (regular and oxidized) sites of base loss. The ratios in which the various modifications are formed (damage spectra) can be regarded as a fingerprint of the damaging mechanism. Here, we describe the damage spectra of various classes of photosensitizers in relation to the underlying damaging mechanisms. In mammalian cells irradiated with solar radiation, damage at wavelengths <400 nm is characteristic for a (not yet identified) endogenous type-I or type-II photosensitizer. In the UVA range, however, both direct DNA excitation and photosensitized damage appear to be relevant, and there are indications that other chromophore(s) are involved than in the visible range.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an extremely well adapted intracellular human pathogen that is exposed to multiple DNA damaging chemical assaults originating from the host defence mechanisms. As a consequence, this bacterium is thought to possess highly efficient DNA repair machineries, the nucleotide excision repair (NER) system amongst these. Although NER is of central importance to DNA repair in M. tuberculosis, our understanding of the processes in this species is limited. The conserved UvrABC endonuclease represents the multi-enzymatic core in bacterial NER, where the UvrA ATPase provides the DNA lesion-sensing function. The herein reported genetic analysis demonstrates that M. tuberculosis UvrA is important for the repair of nitrosative and oxidative DNA damage. Moreover, our biochemical and structural characterization of recombinant M. tuberculosis UvrA contributes new insights into its mechanism of action. In particular, the structural investigation reveals an unprecedented conformation of the UvrB-binding domain that we propose to be of functional relevance. Taken together, our data suggest UvrA as a potential target for the development of novel anti-tubercular agents and provide a biochemical framework for the identification of small-molecule inhibitors interfering with the NER activity in M. tuberculosis.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the potential pro- and anti-mutagenic effects of endogenous bile pigments unconjugated bilirubin (BR), biliverdin (BV) and a synthetic, water soluble conjugate, bilirubin ditaurate (BRT) in the Ames Salmonella test. The bile pigments were tested over a wide concentration range (0.01-2 micromol/plate) in the presence of three bacterial strains (TA98, TA100, TA102). A variety of mutagens including benzo[alpha]pyrene (B[alpha]P), 2,4,7 trinitrofluorenone (TNFone), 2-aminofluorene (2-AF), sodium azide (NaN(3)) and tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH), were used to promote the formation of mutant revertants. Tests were conducted with (B[alpha]P, 2-AF, t-BuOOH) and without (TNFone, NaN(3), t-BuOOH) metabolic activation incorporating the addition of the microsomal liver preparation, S9. The bile pigments alone did not induce mutagenicity in any of the strains tested (p>0.05). Anti-mutagenic effects of the bile pigments were observed in the presence of all mutagens except for NaN(3) and the anti-mutagenic effects appeared independent of the strain tested. For TNFone induced genotoxicity, the order of effectiveness was BR> or =BRT>BV. However, the order was BV> or =BRT> or =BR for 2-AF. Antioxidant testing in the TA102 strain revealed bile pigments could effectively inhibit the genotoxic effect of t-BuOOH induced oxidative stress. The apparent antioxidant and anti-mutagenic behaviour of bile pigments further suggests their presence in biological systems is of possible physiological importance.

Abstract
The cell-damaging effects of N-tert-butoxypyridine-2-thione (tBuOPT), which generates alkoxyl and thiyl radicals on photolysis, have been investigated in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells. The UVA irradiation of 2.5 microM tBuOPT inhibits strongly cell growth and cell viability, causes pronounced membrane damage, and induces micronuclei. Without irradiation, tBuOPT does not cause any cell damage at 2.5 microM concentration. The phototoxicity of tBuOPT is effectively inhibited by the radical scavenger glutathione, while the photogenotoxicity (micronuclei induction) is not affected by this strong hydrogen-atom donor. Thus, for the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity different reactive species seems to be responsible. The cytotoxicity is presumably caused by oxyl radicals, which are derived from tert-butoxyl radicals generated by photocleavage of tBuOPT, while in the genotoxicity the less reactive pyridyl-2-thiyl radicals appear to play a role. These results demonstrate that N-alkoxypyridinethiones are useful photochemical sources of oxyl and thiyl radicals to elucidate biological effects caused by these free radicals.

Abstract
UVA-irradiation of the photo-Fenton reagents N-isopropoxypyridone 2b and N-isopropoxythiazole-2(3H)-thione 3b releases radicals which induce strand breaks. Transient spectroscopy establishes N-O bond scission [Phi(N)(-)(O) = (75 +/- 8)% for 2b and (65 +/- 7)% 3b] as the dominating primary photochemical process to afford the DNA-damaging radicals. Product studies and laser-flash experiments reveal that the thiazolethione 3b leads primarily to the disulfide 5, from which through C-S bond breakage, the bithiazyl 6, the thiazole 7, and the isothiocyanate 8 are derived. Upon irradiation of pyridone 2b (300 nm) in aqueous media, a mixture of isopropoxyl and 2-hydroxyprop-2-yl radicals is formed, as confirmed by trapping with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) and EPR spectroscopy. In contrast, the photolysis of the thiazolethione 3b (350 nm) affords exclusively the DMPO adducts of the isopropoxyl radicals. Control experiments disclose that the thiazolethione-derived photoproduct disulfide 5, or the intermediary thiyl radicals B, scavenge the carbon-centered 2-hydroxyprop-2-yl radicals, which are generated from the isopropoxyl radicals by hydrogen shift. With supercoiled pBR 322 DNA in a 60:40 mixture of H(2)O-MeCN, the pyridone 2b and the thiazolethione 3b display moderate strand-break activity (17% open-circular DNA for 2b and 12% for 3b). In pure water, however, the pyridone 2b photoinduces substantially more DNA cleavage (32% open-circular DNA), which is attributed to the peroxyl radicals generated from the 2-hydroxyprop-2-yl radicals by oxygen trapping. The lower strand-break activity of the thiazolethione 3b derives presumably from isopropoxyl radicals, because only these are detected in the photolysis of this photo-Fenton reagent.

Abstract
[reaction: see text] The photolysis of pyridone 3b (photo-Fenton reagent) in benzene releases tert-butoxyl radicals, which have been trapped by DMPO and EPR-spectrally identified. In aqueous solution, however, the fragmentation of the tert-butoxyl into methyl radicals prevails and the former radicals are of no direct consequence in the photooxidation of 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) and pBR 322 DNA. The photooxidative damage of nucleic acids is caused by the oxyl radical species generated from the methyl radicals with oxygen.
