| Abstract |
Oxidatively damaged thymine, 5-formyluracil (5-fU), was incorporated into a predetermined site of double-stranded shuttle vectors. The nucleotide sequences in which the modified base was incorporated were 5'-CFTAAG-3' and 5'-CTFAAG-3' (F represents 5-fU), the recognition site for the restriction enzyme AflII (5'-CTTAAG-3'). The 5-fU was incorporated into a template strand of either the leading or lagging strand of DNA replication. The modified DNAs were transfected into simian COS-7 cells, and the DNAs replicated in the cells were recovered and were analyzed after the second transfection into Escherichia coli. The 5-fU did not block DNA replication in mammalian cells. The 5-fU residues were weakly mutagenic, and their mutation frequencies in double-stranded vectors were 0.01-0.04%. The T --> G and T --> A transversions were the mutations found most frequently, suggesting the formation of 5-fU.C and 5-fU.T base pairs, respectively. This is the first report that clearly shows the induction of transversion mutations by an oxidized pyrimidine base in DNA in mammalian cells.
