Binding of Nenzo[ a ]pyrene 7,8-Diol-9,10-Epoxides to DNA, RNA, and Protein of Mouse Skin Occurs with High Stereoselectivity

Abstract: The formation, stereostructure, and cellular reactions of the 7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide metabolites of the carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene have been examined after topical application of benzo[a]pyrene to the skin of mice. In this known target tissue, polymer adducts from diastereomeric diol epoxides, (+)-(7S, 8R, 9R, 10R) and (+)-(7R, 8S, 9R, 10R), were formed stereospecifically from their corresponding 7,8-dihydrodiols. Both diol epoxides bind with proteins, RNA, and DNA in vivo. For the nucleic acids, binding occurs … Show more

“…Its reaction at N 2 of guanine gives the major BP DE DNA adduct (trans 10S BP-N 2 -dG, Fig. 1A) in mammalian cells (9,10). This adduct induces mainly base substitutions as well as ÏȘ1 frameshift mutations in vivo (11,12).…”

“…For example, the BP radical cation can yield N7 and C8 depurinating adducts with guanine and adenine that have resulted in H-ras mutation in mouse skin (9,10). (±)-Anti-BP-7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide a representative diol-epoxide can form stable N 2 -adducts with 2â€Č-deoxyguanosine in vivo and in vitro (11)(12)(13)(14) and leads to the mutation of p53 and H-ras (3,15). BP-7,8-dione can produce a stable N 2 -adduct with 2â€Č-deoxyguanosine by either a 1,4-Michael addition to form a hydrated adduct or by a 1,6-Michael addition to yield a hydrated cyclized adduct (16,17).…”

“…These properties result from the formation of stable bulky DNA adducts with 2â€Č-deoxyguanosine (dGuo) (27,28). Furthermore, anti-B [a]PDE activates the c-H-ras-1 proto-oncogene to transform NIH/3T3 cells, which can be assigned to a single point mutation in the 12 th codon of ras (G to T transversion) (29).…”
