General description

6-O-Methylguanine is a purine derivative and its binding affinity has been examined by B. subtilis xpt-pbuX guanine riboswitch (GR) using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). 6-O-Methylguanine is formed during the alkylation of a number of purified tRNA preparations, via reaction with the carcinogens, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea .

Methylated guanine damage at O6 position (i.e. O6MG) is dangerous due to its mutagenic and carcinogenic character that often gives rise to G:C-A:T mutation. However, the reason for this mutagenicity is not known precisely and has been a matter of

Apoptosis, autophagy, necrosis and cellular senescence are key responses of cells that were exposed to genotoxicants. The types of DNA damage triggering these responses and their interrelationship are largely unknown. Here we studied these responses in glioma cells treated with

The scavenging capacity of reactive oxygen species, such as hydroxyl radicals, is reported not to decrease in boiled garlic (an odorless garlic preparation). We therefore examined the modifying effect of boiled garlic powder (BGP) on 1,2-dimethylhydrazine-induced mucin-depleted foci (MDF) and

O⁶-methylguanine (O⁶-MeG) and O⁶-carboxymethylguanine (O⁶-CMG) are characteristic promutagenic and toxic DNA adducts formed by nitrosated glycine derivates and N-nitrosopeptides. Since endogenous nitrosation has been hypothesised as a plausible origin for the association between red and processed meat intake and colorectal

O(6)-methylguanine (O(6)-MeG) is a miscoding DNA lesion arising from the alkylation of guanine. This report uses the bacteriophage T4 DNA polymerase as a model to probe the roles of hydrogen-bonding interactions, shape/size, and nucleobase desolvation during the replication of this
