The Escherichia coli AlkB protein repairs 1-methyladenine (1-meA) and 3-methylcytosine (3-meC) lesions in DNA and RNA by oxidative demethylation, a reaction requiring ferrous iron and 2-oxoglutarate as cofactor and co-substrate, respectively. Here, we have studied the activity of AlkB proteins

1-Methylguanine and 7-methylguanine, both metabolic products of tRNA degradation, are known to induce transformation of Chinese hamster fibroblasts in culture. The effects of these compounds on the cell membrane have been studied by the method of Concanavalin A-mediated hemadsorption. 1-Methylguanine

Primary Chinese hamster embryo cultures exposed chronically to 1-methylguanine or 7-methylguanine, modified purines derived from nucleic acid turnover, exhibit a number of properties characteristic of transformed cell lines. One of the earliest effects observed following exposure of cells to the
