Abstract
The genotoxic 3-(2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2-α]purin-10(3H)-one (M1dG) DNA lesion arises from endogenous exposures to base propenals generated by oxidative damage and from exposures to malondialdehyde (MDA), produced by lipid peroxidation. Once formed, M1dG may oxidize, in vivo, to 3-(2-deoxy-β-D-erythropentofuranosyl)-pyrimido[1,2-f]purine-6,10(3H,5H)-dione (6-oxo-M1dG). The latter blocks DNA replication and is a substrate for error-prone mutagenic bypass by the Y-family DNA polymerase hpol η. To examine structural consequences of 6-oxo-M1dG damage in DNA, we conducted NMR studies of 6-oxo-M1dG incorporated site-specifically into 5' -d(C1A2T3X4A5T6G7A8C9G10C11T12)-3':5'-d(A13G14C15G16T17C18A19T20C21A22T23G24)-3' (X = 6-oxo-M1dG). NMR spectra afforded detailed resonance assignments. Chemical shift analyses revealed that nucleobase C21, complementary to 6-oxo-M1dG, was deshielded compared with the unmodified duplex. Sequential NOEs between 6-oxo-M1dG and A5 were disrupted, as well as NOEs between T20 and C21 in the complementary strand. The structure of the 6-oxo-M1dG modified DNA duplex was refined by using molecular dynamics (rMD) calculations restrained by NOE data. It revealed that 6-oxo-M1dG intercalated into the duplex and remained in the anti-conformation about the glycosyl bond. The complementary cytosine C21 extruded into the major groove, accommodating the intercalated 6-oxo-M1dG. The 6-oxo-M1dG H7 and H8 protons faced toward the major groove, while the 6-oxo-M1dG imidazole proton H2 faced into the major groove. Structural perturbations to dsDNA were limited to the 6-oxo-M1dG damaged base pair and the flanking T3:A22 and A5:T20 base pairs. Both neighboring base pairs remained within the Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding contact. The 6-oxo-M1dG did not stack well with the 5'-neighboring base pair T3:A22 but showed improved stacking with the 3'-neighboring base pair A5:T20. Overall, the base-displaced intercalated structure was consistent with thermal destabilization of the 6-oxo-M1dG damaged DNA duplex; thermal melting temperature data showed a 15 °C decrease in Tm compared to the unmodified duplex. The structural consequences of 6-oxo-M1dG formation in DNA are evaluated in the context of the chemical biology of this lesion.

Abstract
Strand slippage is a structural mechanism by which insertion-deletion (indel) mutations are introduced during replication by polymerases. Three-dimensional atomic-resolution structural pathways are still not known for the decades-old template slippage description. The dynamic nature of the process and the higher energy intermediates involved increase the difficulty of studying these processes experimentally. In the present study, restrained and unrestrained molecular dynamics simulations, carried out using multiple nucleic acid force fields, are used to demonstrate that partial base-flipping can be sufficient for strand slippage at DNA duplex termini. Such strand slippage can occur in either strand, i.e. near either the 3' or the 5' terminus of a DNA strand, which suggests that similar structural flipping mechanisms can cause both primer and template slippage. In the repetitive mutation hot-spot sequence studied, non-canonical base-pairing with exposed DNA groove atoms of a neighboring G:C base-pair stabilizes a partially flipped state of the cytosine. For its base-pair partner guanine, a similar partially flipped metastable intermediate was not detected, and the propensity for sustained slippage was also found to be lower. This illustrates that a relatively small metastable DNA structural distortion in polymerase active sites could allow single base insertion or deletion mutations to occur, and stringent DNA groove molecular recognition may be required to maintain intrinsic DNA polymerase fidelity. The implications of a close relationship between base-pair dissociation, base unstacking, and strand slippage are discussed in the context of sequence dependence of indel mutations.

Abstract
The formation of adducts by the reaction of chemicals with DNA is a critical step for the initiation of carcinogenesis. The structural analysis of various DNA adducts reveals that conformational and chemical rearrangements and interconversions are a common theme. Conformational changes are modulated both by the nature of adduct and the base sequences neighboring the lesion sites. Equilibria between conformational states may modulate both DNA repair and error-prone replication past these adducts. Likewise, chemical rearrangements of initially formed DNA adducts are also modulated both by the nature of adducts and the base sequences neighboring the lesion sites. In this review, we focus on DNA damage caused by a number of environmental and endogenous agents, and biological consequences.

Abstract
The (6S,8R,11S) 1,N(2)-HNE-dGuo adduct of trans-4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) was incorporated into the duplex 5'-d(GCTAGCXAGTCC)-3'.5'-d(GGACTAGCTAGC)-3' [X = (6S,8R,11S) HNE-dG], in which the lesion was mismatched opposite dAdo. The (6S,8R,11S) adduct maintained the ring-closed 1,N(2)-HNE-dG structure. This was in contrast to when this adduct was correctly paired with dCyd, conditions under which it underwent ring opening and rearrangement to diastereomeric minor groove cyclic hemiacetals [ Huang , H. , Wang , H. , Qi , N. , Lloyd , R. S. , Harris , T. M. , Rizzo , C. J. , and Stone , M. P. ( 2008 ) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 130 , 10898 - 10906 ]. The (6S,8R,11S) adduct exhibited a syn/anti conformational equilibrium about the glycosyl bond. The syn conformation was predominant in acidic solution. Structural analysis of the syn conformation revealed that X(7) formed a distorted base pair with the complementary protonated A(18). The HNE moiety was located in the major groove. Structural perturbations were observed at the neighbor C(6).G(19) and A(8).T(17) base pairs. At basic pH, the anti conformation of X(7) was the major species. The 1,N(2)-HNE-dG intercalated and displaced the complementary A(18) in the 5'-direction, resulting in a bulge at the X(7).A(18) base pair. The HNE aliphatic chain was oriented toward the minor groove. The Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding of the neighboring A(8).T(17) base pair was also disrupted.

Abstract
The conformation of the 1 R,2 S,3 R,4 S-benzo[ c]phenanthrene- N (2)-dG adduct, arising from trans opening of the (+)-1 S,2 R,3 R,4 S- anti-benzo[ c]phenanthrene diol epoxide, was examined in 5'- d(ATCGC XCGGCATG)-3'.5'-d(CATGCCG CGCGAT)-3', where X = 1 R,2 S,3 R,4 S-B[ c]P- N (2)-dG. This duplex, derived from the hisD3052 frameshift tester strain of Salmonella typhimurium, contains a (CG) 3 iterated repeat, a hotspot for frameshift mutagenesis. NMR experiments showed a disconnection in sequential NOE connectivity between X (4) and C (5), and in the complementary strand, they showed another disconnection between G (18) and C (19). In the imino region of the (1)H NMR spectrum, a resonance was observed at the adducted base pair X (4) x C (19). The X (4) N1H and G (18) N1H resonances shifted upfield as compared to the other guanine imino proton resonances. NOEs were observed between X (4) N1H and C (19) N (4)H and between C (5) N (4)H and G (18) N1H, indicating that base pairs X (4) x C (19) and C (5) x G (18) maintained Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding. No NOE connectivity was observed between X (4) and G (18) in the imino region of the spectrum. Chemical shift perturbations of greater than 0.1 ppm were localized at nucleotides X (4) and C (5) in the modified strand and G (18) and C (19) in the complementary strand. A total of 13 NOEs between the protons of the 1 R-B[ c]Ph moiety and the DNA were observed between B[ c]Ph and major groove aromatic or amine protons at base pairs X (4) x C (19) and 3'-neighbor C (5) x G (18). Structural refinement was achieved using molecular dynamics calculations restrained by interproton distances and torsion angle restraints obtained from NMR data. The B[ c]Ph moiety intercalated on the 3'-face of the X (4) x C (19) base pair such that the terminal ring of 1 R-B[ c]Ph threaded the duplex and faced into the major groove. The torsion angle alpha' [X (4)]-N3-C2-N2-B[ c]Ph]-C1 was calculated to be -177 degrees, maintaining an orientation in which the X (4) exocyclic amine remained in plane with the purine. The torsion angle beta' [X (4)]-C2-N2-[B[ c]Ph]-C1-C2 was calculated to be 75 degrees. This value governed the 3'-orientation of the B[ c]Ph moiety with respect to X (4). The helical rise between base pairs X (4) x C (19) and C (5) x G (18) increased and resulted in unwinding of the right-handed helix. The aromatic rings of the B[ c]Ph moiety were below the Watson-Crick hydrogen-bonding face of the modified base pair X (4) x C (19). The B[c]Ph moiety was stacked above nucleotide G (18), in the complementary strand.

Abstract
1, N (2)-Propanodeoxyguanosine (PdG) is a stable structural analogue for the 3-(2'-deoxy-beta- d- erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2-alpha]purin-10(3 H)-one (M 1dG) adduct derived from exposure of DNA to base propenals and to malondialdehyde. The structures of ternary polymerase-DNA-dNTP complexes for three template-primer DNA sequences were determined, with the Y-family Sulfolobus solfataricus DNA polymerase IV (Dpo4), at resolutions between 2.4 and 2.7 A. Three template 18-mer-primer 13-mer sequences, 5'-d(TCACXAAATCCTTCCCCC)-3'.5'-d(GGGGGAAGGATTT)-3' (template I), 5'-d(TCACXGAATCCTTCCCCC)-3'.5'-d(GGGGGAAGGATTC)-3' (template II), and 5'-d(TCATXGAATCCTTCCCCC)-3'.5'-d(GGGGGAAGGATTC)-3' (template III), where X is PdG, were analyzed. With templates I and II, diffracting ternary complexes including dGTP were obtained. The dGTP did not pair with PdG, but instead with the 5'-neighboring template dC, utilizing Watson-Crick geometry. Replication bypass experiments with the template-primer 5'-TCACXAAATCCTTACGAGCATCGCCCCC-3'.5'-GGGGGCGATGCTCGTAAGGATTT-3', where X is PdG, which includes PdG in the 5'-CXA-3' template sequence as in template I, showed that the Dpo4 polymerase inserted dGTP and dATP when challenged by the PdG adduct. For template III, in which the template sequence was 5'-TXG-3', a diffracting ternary complex including dATP was obtained. The dATP did not pair with PdG, but instead with the 5'-neighboring T, utilizing Watson-Crick geometry. Thus, all three ternary complexes were of the "type II" structure described for ternary complexes with native DNA [Ling, H., Boudsocq, F., Woodgate, R., and Yang, W. (2001) Cell 107, 91-102]. The PdG adduct remained in the anti conformation about the glycosyl bond in each of these threee ternary complexes. These results provide insight into how -1 frameshift mutations might be generated for the PdG adduct, a structural model for the exocylic M 1dG adduct formed by malondialdehyde.

Abstract
The OPdG adduct N (2)-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)dG, formed in DNA exposed to malondialdehyde, was introduced into 5'-d(ATCGC XCGGCATG)-3'.5'-d(CATGCCGCGAT)-3' at pH 7 (X = OPdG). The OPdG adduct is the base-catalyzed rearrangement product of the M 1dG adduct, 3-(beta- d-ribofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2- a]purin-10(3 H)-one. This duplex, named the OPdG-2BD oligodeoxynucleotide, was derived from a frameshift hotspot of the Salmonella typhimuium hisD3052 gene and contained a two-base deletion in the complementary strand. NMR spectroscopy revealed that the OPdG-2BD oligodeoxynucleotide underwent rapid bulge migration. This hindered its conversion to the M 1dG-2BD duplex, in which the bulge was localized and consisted of the M 1dG adduct and the 3'-neighbor dC [ Schnetz-Boutaud, N. C. , Saleh, S. , Marnett, L. J. , and Stone, M. P. ( 2001) Biochemistry 40, 15638- 15649 ]. The spectroscopic data suggested that bulge migration transiently positioned OPdG opposite dC in the complementary strand, hindering formation of the M 1dG-2BD duplex, or alternatively, reverting rapidly formed intermediates in the OPdG to M 1dG reaction pathway when dC was placed opposite from OPdG. The approach of initially formed M 1dG-2BD or OPdG-2BD duplexes to an equilibrium mixture of the M 1dG-2BD and OPdG-2BD duplexes was monitored as a function of time, using NMR spectroscopy. Both samples attained equilibrium in approximately 140 days at pH 7 and 25 degrees C.

Abstract
Malondialdehyde (MDA) and its reactive equivalent, base propenal, are products of oxidative damage to lipids and DNA, respectively; they are mutagenic in bacterial and mammalian systems, and MDA is carcinogenic in rats. MDA adducts of deoxyguanosine (M1dG), deoxyadenosine (OPdA), and deoxycytidine (OPdC) have been characterized. We have developed site-specific syntheses of M1dG and OPdA adducted oligonucleotides that rely on a postsynthetic modification strategy. This work provides an alternative route to the M1dG adducted oligonucleotide and, to date, the only viable strategy for the site-specific synthesis of OPdA-modified oligonucleotides. The stability of the modified oligonucleotides was examined by UV thermal melting studies (Tm). In contrast to the M1dG adduct, OPdA caused very little change in the Tm.

Abstract
DNA adducts are mutagenic and clastogenic. Because of their harmful nature, lesions are recognized by many proteins involved in DNA repair. However, mounting evidence suggests that lesions also are recognized by proteins with no obvious role in repair processes. One such protein is topoisomerase II, an essential enzyme that removes knots and tangles from the DNA. Because topoisomerase II generates a protein-linked double-stranded DNA break during its catalytic cycle, it has the potential to fragment the genome. Previous studies indicate that abasic sites and other lesions that distort the double helix stimulate topoisomerase II-mediated DNA cleavage. Therefore, to further explore interactions between DNA lesions and the enzyme, the effects of exocyclic adducts on DNA cleavage mediated by human topoisomerase IIalpha were determined. When located within the four-base overhang of a topoisomerase II cleavage site (at the +2 or +3 position 3' relative to the scissile bond), 3,N(4)-ethenodeoxycytidine, 3,N(4)-etheno-2'-ribocytidine, 1,N(2)-ethenodeoxyguanosine, pyrimido[1,2-a]purin-10(3H)-one deoxyribose (M(1)dG), and 1,N(2)-propanodeoxyguanosine increased DNA scission approximately 5-17-fold. Enhanced cleavage did not result from an increased affinity of topoisomerase IIalpha for adducted DNA or a decreased rate of religation. Therefore, it is concluded that these exocyclic lesions act by accelerating the forward rate of enzyme-mediated DNA scission. Finally, treatment of cultured human cells with 2-chloroacetaldehyde, a reactive metabolite of vinyl chloride that generates etheno adducts, increased cellular levels of DNA cleavage by topoisomerase IIalpha. This finding suggests that type II topoisomerases interact with exocyclic DNA lesions in physiological systems.

Abstract
Acrolein, which is widely spread in the environment and is produced by lipid peroxidation in cells, reacts with DNA to form two exocyclic 1,N2-propanodeoxyguanosine (PdG) adducts. To establish their relative contribution to the acrolein mutagenicity, the genotoxic properties of alpha-OH-PdG and gamma-OH-PdG together with their model DNA adduct, PdG, were studied in human cells. DNA adducts were incorporated site-specifically into a SV40/BK virus origin-based shuttle vector and replicated in xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XPA) cells. Analysis of progeny plasmid revealed that alpha-OH-PdG and PdG strongly block DNA synthesis and that both adducts induced base substitutions with G --> T transversions predominating. Primer extension studies, catalyzed by the 3'-->5' exonuclease-deficient Klenow fragment of Escherichia coli pol I, revealed limited extension from the 3' primer termini opposite these two adducts. In contrast, gamma-OH-PdG did not strongly block DNA synthesis or miscode in XPA cells. Primer extension from a dC terminus opposite gamma-OH-PdG was much more efficient than that opposite alpha-OH-PdG or PdG. These results indicate that the minor alpha-OH-PdG adduct is more genotoxic than the major gamma-OH-PdG. Furthermore, experiments using a HeLa whole cell extract indicate that all three DNA adducts are not efficiently removed from DNA by base excision repair.

Abstract
Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a toxic and mutagenic metabolite produced by lipid peroxidation, and prostaglandin biosynthesis. MDA induces frameshift mutations in tester strains of Salmonella typhimurium. It reacts with DNA, and at physiological pH the major adduct is a pyrimidopurinone formed by reaction with guanine: M1G [3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythropentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2-alpha]-purin-10(3H)-one]. When site-specifically incorporated into a duplex oligodeoxynucleotide containing a frameshift-prone (CG)3 repeat derived from the Salmonella typhimurium hisd3052 gene, spontaneous opening of M1G to the N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG species occurred. In this work d(ATCGCMCGGCATG), (M=M1G) was annealed to d(CATGCCGCGAT) to model the putative strand slippage intermediate which would precede a two base deletion in the (CG)3 iterated repeat. 1H NMR studies indicate that in contrast to the duplex DNA structure, M1G remains intact. A single bulge conformation exists. M1G and its 3'-neighbor cytosine are unpaired. The M1G is intrahelical and stacked, whereas the unpaired cytosine is poorly stacked and appears to be extrahelical.

Abstract
Equilenin, a component of the drug Premarin (Wyeth), can be metabolized to a quinonoid, 4-hydroxyequilenin (4-OHEN). 4-OHEN can react with 2'-deoxynucleosides to form unusual cyclic adducts, among which 4-hydroxyequilenin-2'-deoxyguanosine (4-OHEN-dG) is the major product under physiological conditions. The structure and stereochemistry of one stereoisomer, 4-OHEN-dG1, has been obtained previously using electrospray mass spectrometry and NMR methods [Shen et al. (1997) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 119, 11126-11127]; however, details of the conformations around the linkage site have not yet been investigated. The objective of this paper was to determine the conformation at the five-membered ring linkage site for this adduct. We have carried out a computational investigation involving high level quantum mechanical geometry optimization using density functional theory (DFT) for the 4-hydroxyequilenin-guanine adduct (4-OHEN-G1). Our results reveal that there are three conformational families which differ in the puckering of the five-membered ring at the linkage site and in the cyclohexene-type A ring conformation. The overall structures of all three families are "V"-shaped; however, two are quite compact while the third is more open. The lowest energy structure contains a half chair-type cyclohexene A ring, while two structures whose energies are approximately 3-4 kcal/mol higher are boat-type. Since the Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding edge of the modified guanine is obstructed by the formation of this bulky nonplanar adduct, it likely would reside in a groove of the DNA double helix.

Abstract
Acrolein, widely distributed in the environment and also produced endogenously, forms deoxyguanosine adducts in DNA. The genotoxicity of the major acrolein-dG adduct, 8alpha and 8beta isomers of 3H-8-hydroxy-3-(beta-D-2'-deoxyribofuranosyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,2-a]purine-9-one (gamma-OH-PdG), and the model adduct, PdG, which lacks the hydroxy group of gamma-OH-PdG, was investigated in human cells. The adducts were site-specifically incorporated into a SV40/BK origin-based shuttle vector. Estimated efficiencies of translesion DNA synthesis were 73% for gamma-OH-PdG and 25% for PdG when compared with dG control. Gamma-OH-PdG was marginally miscoding (<or=1%), inducing G-->T and G-->A base substitutions in HeLa and xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XP-A) and variant (XP-V) cells. There was no significant difference in the miscoding frequency when the adduct was inserted in the leading or lagging strand. PdG was more miscoding than gamma-OH-PdG by inducing targeted base substitutions (G-->T, A, or C) at a frequency of 7.5% in XP-A cells. Thus, the authentic major adduct, gamma-OH-PdG, is less blocking to DNA synthesis and less miscoding than the model adduct, PdG.

Abstract
The solution structure of the 1,N(2)-propanodeoxyguanosine (PdG) adduct was determined in a 3-base hairpin loop formed by d(CGCGGTXTCCGCG) (X = PdG). This sequence is contained within the Salmonella typhimurium hisD3052 gene, a hotspot for frameshift mutagenesis. PdG provides a structural model for the primary adduct induced in DNA by malondialdehyde, the 3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2-a]-purin-10(3H)-one (M(1)G) lesion. The solution structure of the PdG-containing hairpin was refined by molecular dynamics calculations restrained by a combination of NMR-derived distances and dihedral angles, using a simulated annealing protocol. The structure of the PdG-modified hairpin consisted of a five-base-pair stem and a three-base loop consisting of T(6), X(7), and T(8). T(6) projected into the minor groove of the stem adjacent to G(4). The modified base X(7) stacked on top of the duplex stem and wedged between bases T(8) and C(9). The PdG moiety was oriented such that the imidazole proton was facing the minor groove of the stem and the exocyclic protons projected into the major groove. The structure of the adducted hairpin was compared with the structure of the corresponding unmodified oligodeoxynucleotide, and was found to be similar. There was a minor difference in the backbone angles of the G and PdG Hairpins at the phosphate linkage between G(5) and T(6) involving the G(5) epsilon angle and T(6) alpha and beta angles. The PdG-modified hairpin exhibited an increase in T(m) of approximately 2 degrees C compared to the unmodified hairpin. The structural and thermodynamic similarities suggested that PdG does not stabilize this hairpin and thus may not promote its extrusion in duplex DNA. The structural results are correlated with the results of site-specific mutagenesis experiments in the same sequence, which do not show evidence of frameshift mutations associated with hairpin loop formation. The geometry of this three-base loop is similar to that of other DNA hairpins containing three-base loops, and suggests a common motif for the folding of these loops.

Abstract
The structure of the 1,N(2)-Propanodeoxyguanosine (PdG) adduct was determined at pH 5.2 in the oligodeoxynucleotide duplex 5'-d(CGCGGTXTCCGCG)3'.5'-d(CGCGGACACCGCG)-3' (X = PdG). This sequence, referred to as the -TXT- sequence, is contained within the Salmonella typhimurium hisD3052 gene and contains a palindrome, representing a potential hotspot for frameshift mutagenesis. PdG provides a model for the primary adduct induced in DNA by malondialdehyde, the 3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2-a]-purin-10(3H)-one (M(1)G) lesion. The solution structure was refined by molecular dynamics calculations restrained by a combination of NMR-derived distances and dihedral angles, using a simulated annealing protocol. PdG introduced a localized perturbation into the sequence at base pair X(7).C(20), which was pH-dependent. At neutral pH, conformational exchange resulted in spectral line broadening, and it was not possible to determine the structure. A stable structure was observed at pH 5.2 in which PdG rotated about the glycosyl bond into the syn conformation. This placed the exocyclic moiety into the major groove of the duplex. PdG formed a protonated Hoogsteen pair with nucleotide C(20) in the complementary strand. The pseudorotation of the deoxyribose at C(20) was altered to an approximately equal blend of C2'-endo and C3'-endo structures. However, these made little difference in the overall structure of the modified oligodeoxynucleotide. The structure was compared to that of PdG in the 5'-d(CGCXCGGCATG)-3'.5'-(CATGCCGCGCG)-3' sequence (the -CXC- sequence) at pH 5.8 [Singh, U. S., Moe, J. G., Reddy, G. R., Weisenseel, J. P., Marnett, L. J., and Stone, M. P. (1993) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 6, 825-836]. A sequence effect was observed. When PdG was placed into the -TXT- sequence at low pH, the structural perturbation was limited to the X(7).C(20) base pair. In contrast, when PdG was placed into the -CXC- sequence at low pH, both the modified base pair and its 3'-neighbor base pair were disrupted. The results are discussed in the context of differential outcomes for site-specific mutagenesis and replication bypass experiments when PdG was placed in the -TXT- and -CXC- sequences, respectively.

Abstract
The pyrimidopurinone adduct M1G [3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1,2-a]-purin-10(3H)-one], formed in DNA upon exposure to malondialdehyde or base propenals, was incorporated into 5'-d(ATCGCMCGGCATG)-3'-5'-d(CATGCCGCGAT)-3', where M = M1G. This duplex contained a two-nucleotide bulge in the modified strand, and was named the M1G-2BD oligodeoxynucleotide. It provided a model for -2 bp strand slippage deletions associated with the (CpG)3-iterated repeat hotspot for frameshift mutations from the Salmonella typhimurium hisD3052 gene. M1G was chemically stable in the M1G-2BD duplex at neutral pH. The two-base bulge in the M1G-2BD oligodeoxynucleotide was localized and consisted of M1G and the 3'-neighbor deoxycytosine. The intrahelical orientation of M1G was established from a combination of NOE and chemical shift data. M1G was in the anti conformation about the glycosyl bond. The 3'-neighbor deoxycytosine appeared to be extruded toward the major groove. In contrast, when M1G was placed into the corresponding fully complementary (CpG)3-iterated repeat duplex at neutral pH, spontaneous and quantitative ring-opening to N(2)-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG (the OPG adduct) was facilitated [Mao, H., Reddy, G. R., Marnett, L. J., and Stone, M. P. (1999) Biochemistry 38, 13491-13501]. The structure of the M1G-2BD duplex suggested that the bulged sequence lacked a cytosine amino group properly positioned to facilitate opening of M1G and supports the notion that proper positioning of deoxycytosine complementary to M1G is necessary to promote ring-opening of the exocyclic adduct in duplex DNA. The structure of the M1G-2BD duplex was similar to that of the structural analogue 1,N(2)-propanodeoxyguanosine (PdG) in the corresponding PdG-2BD duplex [Weisenseel, J. P., Moe, J. G., Reddy, G. R., Marnett, L. J., and Stone, M. P. (1995) Biochemistry 34, 50-64]. The fixed position of the bulged bases in both instances suggests that these exocyclic adducts do not facilitate transient bulge migration.

Abstract
Topoisomerase II is the target for several anticancer drugs that "poison" the enzyme and convert it to a cellular toxin by increasing topoisomerase II-mediated DNA cleavage. In addition to these "exogenous topoisomerase II poisons," DNA lesions such as abasic sites act as "endogenous poisons" of the enzyme. Drugs and lesions are believed to stimulate DNA scission by altering the structure of the double helix within the cleavage site of the enzyme. However, the structural alterations that enhance cleavage are unknown. Since abasic sites are an intrinsic part of the genetic material, they represent an attractive model to assess DNA distortions that lead to altered topoisomerase II function. Therefore, the structure of a double-stranded dodecamer containing a tetrahydrofuran apurinic lesion at the +2 position of a topoisomerase II DNA cleavage site was determined by NMR spectroscopy. Three major features distinguished the apurinic structure ( = 0.095) from that of wild-type ( = 0.077). First, loss of base stacking at the lesion collapsed the major groove and reduced the distance between the two scissile phosphodiester bonds. Second, the apurinic lesion induced a bend that was centered about the topoisomerase II cleavage site. Third, the base immediately opposite the lesion was extrahelical and relocated to the minor groove. All of these structural alterations have the potential to influence interactions between topoisomerase II and its DNA substrate.

Abstract
The refined solution structure for the ring-opened N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG derivative of the malondialdehyde deoxyguanosine adduct M(1)G [3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrimido[1, 2-a]purin-10(3H)-one] in d(ATCGCXCGGCATG) x d(CATGCCGCGCGAT) [X being N(2)-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG], containing the d(CpG)(3) frameshift hotspot of the Salmonella typhimurium hisD3052 gene, is presented. When inserted into this duplex, M(1)G underwent spontaneous ring opening to N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG. NMR analysis revealed that N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG induced minor structural perturbations in the hisD3052 oligodeoxynucleotide. However, the stability of the duplex DNA was reduced; the N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG-modified hisD3052 oligodeoxynucleotide exhibited a 14 degrees C decrease in T(m) relative to that of the native oligodeoxynucleotide. The modified guanine maintained stacking interactions with neighboring bases but was not Watson-Crick hydrogen bonded. A total of 13 NOEs were observed from the 3-oxo-1-propenyl moiety protons of N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG to DNA protons. Molecular dynamics calculations, restrained by 602 distance restraints derived from experimental NOE measurements and 23 empirical distance restraints, converged with pairwise rmsd differences of <0.90 A. The sixth-root residual factor with the NMR data was 9.1 x 10(-2). The cytosine complementary to N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG was pushed toward the major groove but maintained partial stacking interactions with its neighboring bases. The modified guanine remained in the anti conformation, while the 3-oxo-1-propenyl moiety was positioned in the minor groove of the duplex. Possible correlations between the relatively small structural perturbations induced in this DNA duplex by N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG and the mutagenic spectrum of M(1)G are discussed.

Abstract
The primary DNA lesion induced by malondialdehyde, a byproduct of lipid peroxidation and prostaglandin synthesis, is 3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-pyrimido[1, 2-a]purin-10(3H)-one (M1G). When placed opposite cytosine (underlined) at neutral pH in either the d(GGTMTCCG).d(CGGACACC) or d(ATCGCMCGGCATG). d(CATGCCGCGCGAT) duplexes, M1G spontaneously and quantitatively converts to the ring-opened derivative N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG. Ring-opening is reversible on thermal denaturation. Ring-opening does not occur at neutral pH in single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides or when T is placed opposite to M1G in a duplex. The presence of a complementary cytosine is not required to stabilize N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG in duplex DNA at neutral pH. When N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG is placed opposite to thymine in a duplex, it does not revert to M1G. A mechanism for the conversion of M1G to N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG is proposed in which the exocyclic amino group of the complementary cytosine attacks the C8 position of the M1G exocyclic ring and facilitates ring opening via formation of a transient Schiff base. Addition of water to the Schiff base regenerates the catalytic cytosine and generates N2-(3-oxo-1-propenyl)-dG. These results document the ability of duplex DNA to catalyze the transformation of one adduct into another, which may have important consequences for mutagenesis and repair.

Abstract
The Escherichia coli NarI restriction enzyme recognition site 5'G1G2C3G4C5C63' is a mutational hotspot for -2 deletions in E. coli plasmid pBR322, resulting in the sequence 5'GGCC3' when G4 is modified by the aromatic amine N-2-(acetyl)aminofluorene (AAF) [Burnouf, D., Koehl, P., and Fuchs, R. P. P. (1995) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86, 4147-4151] even though each G shows similar reactivity [Fuchs, R. P. P. (1984) J. Mol. Biol. 177, 173-180]. Modification at G4 by the related aromatic amine 2-aminofluorene (AF), which lacks the acetyl group of AAF, can also cause -2 deletions, but at a lower frequency [Bichara, M., and Fuchs, R. P. P. (1985) J. Mol. Biol. 183, 341-351]. A specific mechanism has been proposed to explain the double-base frameshifts in the NarI sequence in which the GC deletion results from a slipped mutagenic intermediate formed during replication [Schaaper, B. M., Koffel-Schwartz, N., and Fuchs, R. P. P. (1990) Carcinogenesis 11, 1087-1095]. We address the following key questions in this study. Why does AAF modification dramatically increase the mutagenicity at the NarI G4 position, and why does AAF enhance the mutagenicity more than AF? We studied two intermediates which model replication at one arm of a fork, using a fragment of DNA modified by AF or AAF at G4 in the NarI sequence: Intermediate I can be converted into intermediate II by misalignment. Elongation of intermediate I leads to error-free translesion synthesis, while elongation of intermediate II leads to a -2 frameshift mutation. Minimized potential energy calculations were carried out using the molecular mechanics program DUPLEX to investigate the conformations of the AF and AAF adducts at G4 in these two intermediates. We find that the slipped mutagenic intermediate is quite stable relative to its normally extended counterpart in the presence of AF and AAF in an abnormal syn orientation of the damaged base. An enhanced probability of elongation from a stable slipped structure rather than a properly aligned one would favor increased -2 frameshift mutations. Furthermore, AAF-modified DNA has a greater tendency to adopt the syn orientation than AF because of its greater bulk, which could explain its greater propensity to cause -2 deletions in the NarI sequence.

Abstract
The targeted adduction of aflatoxin B1- exo -8,9-epoxide (AFB1- exo -8,9-epoxide) to a specific guanine within an oligodeoxyribonucleotide containing multiple guanines was achieved using a DNA triplex to control sequence selectivity. The oligodeoxyribonucleotide d(AGAGAAGATTTTCTTCTCTTTTTTTTCTCTT), designated '3G', spontaneously formed a triplex in which nucleotides C27*G2*C18 and C29*G4*C16 formed base triplets, and nucleotides G7*C13formed a Watson-Crick base pair. The oligodeoxyribonucleotide d(AAGAAATTTTTTCTTTTTTTTTTCTT), designated '1G', also formed a triplex in which nucleotides C24*G3*C24 formed a triplet. Reaction of the two oligodeoxyribonucleotides with AFB1-exo-8,9-epoxide revealed that only the 3G sequence formed an adduct, as determined by UV absorbance and piperidine cleavage of the 5'-labeled adduct, followed by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This site was identified as G7by comparison to the guanine-specific cleavage pattern. The chemistry was extended to a series of nicked bimolecular triple helices, constructed from d(AAAGGGGGAA) and d(CnTTCTTTTTCCCCCTTTATTTTTTC5-n) (n = 1-5). Each oligomer in the series differed only in the placement of the nick. Reaction of the nicked triplexes with AFB1- exo -8,9-epoxide, piperidine cleavage of the 5'-labeled adduct, followed by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, revealed cleavage corresponding to the guanine closest to the pyrimidine strand nick. By using the appropriate pyrimidine sequence the lesion was positioned within the purine strand.

This paper addresses structural issues related to the capacity of aminofluorene [AF] for frameshift mutations of the -2 type on C8 covalent adduct formation at the G3 site in the d(C-G1-G2-C-G3-C-C) NarI hot spot sequence. This problem has been approached from a combined NMR and relaxation matrix analysis computational structural study of the [AF]dG adduct in the d(C-G-G-C-[AF]G-C-C).d(G-G-C-C-G) sequence context at the 12/10-mer adduct level (designated [AF]dG.del(-2) 12/10-mer). The proton spectra of this system are of exceptional quality and are consistent with the formation of an AF-intercalated conformer with the modified guanine in a syn alignment displaced along with the 5'-flanking cytosine residue into the major groove. The solution structure has been determined by initially incorporating intramolecular and intermolecular proton-proton distances defined by lower and upper bound deduced from NOESY spectra as restraints in molecular mechanics computations in torsion angle space and subsequently refined through restrainted molecular dynamics calculations based on a NOE distance and intensity refinement protocol. Strikingly, the [AF]dG.del(-2) 12/10-mer duplex adopts only one of two potential AF-intercalation alignments for the [AF]dG adduct opposite the -2 deletion site in the NarI sequence context with the extrusion of the dC-[AF]dG step favored completely over extrusion of the [AF]dG-dC step at the lesion site. This polarity establishes that the structural perturbation extends 5' rather than 3' to the [AF]dG lesion site in the adduct duplex. This structure of the [AF]dG adduct opposite a -2 deletion site shows distinct differences with conclusions reported on the alignment of the related acetylaminofluorene [AAF]dG adduct opposite a -2 deletion site in the identical NarI sequence context [Milhe, C., Fuchs, R. P. P., and Lefevre, J. F. (1996) Eur. J. Biochem. 235, 120-127]. In that study, qualitative NMR data without computational analysis were employed to conclude that the extrusion at the lesion site occurs at the [AAF]dG-dC step for the AAF-intercalated conformer of the adduct duplex. The structure of the [AF]dG adduct opposite a -2 deletion site determined in our group provides molecular insights into the architecture of extended slipped mutagenic intermediates involving aromatic amine intercalation and base-displaced syn modified guanines in AF and, by analogy, AAF-induced mutagenesis in the NarI hot spot sequence context.

Abstract
Propanodeoxyguanosine (PdG) is a model for several unstable exocyclic adducts formed by reaction of DNA with bifunctional carbonyl compounds generated by lipid peroxidation. The effect of PdG on DNA synthesis by human DNA polymerase beta was evaluated using template-primers containing PdG at defined sites. DNA synthesis was conducted in vitro and the products were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and DNA sequencing. The extent of PdG bypass was low and the products comprised a mixture of base pair substitutions and deletions. Sequence analysis of all of the products indicated that the deoxynucleoside monophosphate incorporated "opposite" PdG was complementary to the base 5' to PdG in the template strand. These findings are very similar to recent results of Efrati et al. (Efrati, E., Tocco, G., Eritja, R., Wilson, S. H., and Goodman, M. F. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 2559-2569) obtained in DNA replication of template-primers containing abasic sites and suggest that PdG is a non-informational lesion when acted upon by polymerase (pol) beta. In addition to base pair substitutions and one- or two-base deletions, a four-base deletion was observed and the mechanism of its formation was probed by site-specific mutagenesis. The results indicated that this deletion occurred by one-base insertion followed by slippage to form a four-base loop followed by extension. All of the observations on pol beta replication of PdG-containing template-primers are consistent with a mechanism of lesion bypass that involves template slippage and dNTP stabilization followed by deoxynucleoside monophosphate incorporation and extension. This mechanism of PdG bypass is completely different than that previously determined for the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase I and is consistent with recent structural models for DNA synthesis by pol beta.

Abstract
Efficient transcription from the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) promoter depends on binding of the viral regulatory protein Tat to a cis-acting RNA regulatory element, TAR. Tat binds at a trinucleotide bulge located near the apex of the TAR stem-loop structure. An essential feature of Tat-TAR interaction is that the protein induces a conformational change in TAR that repositions the functional groups on the bases and the phosphate backbone that are critical for specific intermolecular recognition of TAR RNA. We have previously determined a high resolution structure for the bound form of TAR RNA using heteronuclear NMR. Here, we describe a high resolution structure of the free TAR RNA based on 871 experimentally determined restraints. In the free TAR RNA, bulged residues U23 and C24 are stacked within the helix, while U25 is looped out. This creates a major distortion of the phosphate backbone between C24 and G26. In contrast, in the bound TAR RNA, each of the three residues from the bulge are looped out of the helix and U23 is drawn into proximity with G26 through contacts with an arginine residue that is inserted between the two bases. Thus, TAR RNA undergoes a transition from a structure with an open and accessible major groove to a much more tightly packed structure that is folded around basic side chains emanating from the Tat protein.
