“…EMS acts as a powerful alkyl donor, which provides an alkyl residue to the N7-glycodidic bond of guanine or thymine, resulting in G-T mismatch and introducing AT→GC and GC→AT transition mutations [18]. Alkylating agents such as methyl metansulfonate (MMS) and N-methyl-N-nitrosourea directly alkylate nitrogen and oxygen atoms of DNA bases [19]. Additionally, MMS forms covalent bonds with DNA and causes methylation of guanine [20].…”

“…These effects may be explained by cadmium inhibition on several types of DNA repair: base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, mismatch repair and the elimination of the premutagenic DNA precursor 8-oxodGTP. Regarding base excision repair, low concentrations of cadmium which did not generate oxidative damage as such, inhibited the repair of oxidative DNA damage in mammalian cells (Dally & Hartwig 1997;Fatur et al 2003). Exposure of human cells to sub-lethal concentrations of cadmium leads to a time and concentration dependent decrease in hOGG1 activity, i.e.…”
