Natural nucleic acid bases can form Watson–Crick (WC) or Hoogsteen (HG) base pairs. Importantly, 8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) in DNA or 8-oxo-dG 5′-triphosphate (8-oxo-dGTP) favors a syn conformation because of the steric repulsion between O8 and O4′ of the deoxyribose ring. 8-oxo-dGTP can be incorporated into DNA opposite the templating adenine (A) using HG pairing as the dominant mechanism. Both RNA and DNA can be methylated at the N6 position of A to form N6-methyladenine (m6A). It has been found that certain viral infections may trigger an increase in the production of both 8-oxo-dGTP and m6A. The current study aims to systematically explore the effects of m6A methylation on HG base pairs and the consequent nucleotide incorporation. Our thermodynamic melting study shows that the m6A·8-oxo-dG is significantly less stable than the A·8-oxo-dG base pair in the paired region of a DNA duplex. Moreover, we have used pre-steady-state kinetics to examine the incorporation of 8-oxo-dGTP opposite m6A relative to A by a variety of reverse transcriptase (RT) enzymes and DNA polymerase (DNA pol) enzymes such as the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RT and human DNA pol β. The results demonstrate that all of these enzymes incorporate 8-oxo-dGTP less efficiently opposite m6A relative to A. Considering the steric bulk of the purine–purine pair between 8-oxo-dG and A, m6A methylation may affect the HG pairing to a great extent. Hence, it will be unfavorable to incorporate 8-oxo-dGTP into the growing strand opposite m6A. Moreover, the impeded incorporation of 8-oxo-dGTP opposite m6A has been extended to determine m6A at pre-defined positions in human rRNA. Our study may provide new insights into the roles of m6A in reducing the mutagenic potential of cellular 8-oxo-dGTP.

m 6 A甲基化干扰Hoogsteen配对指导的氧化核苷酸的掺入

天然核酸碱基可以形成Watson-Crick(WC)或Hoogsteen(HG)碱基对。重要的是,由于O8和O4'之间的空间排斥作用,DNA中的8-oxo-2'-脱氧鸟苷(8-oxo-dG)或8-oxo-dG 5'-三磷酸(8-oxo-dGTP)倾向于合成构象。的脱氧核糖环。可以使用HG配对作为主要机制,将8-oxo-dGTP掺入与模板腺嘌呤(A)相反的DNA中。RNA和DNA均可在A的N6位甲基化,形成N 6-甲基腺嘌呤(m 6 A)。已经发现某些病毒感染可能会触发8-oxo-dGTP和m 6 A的产生增加。本研究旨在系统地研究m 6的作用。HG碱基对的甲基化和随后的核苷酸掺入。我们的热力学解链研究表明,在DNA双链体的配对区域中,m 6 A·8-氧代-dG的稳定性显着低于A·8-氧代-dG碱基对。此外,我们已使用稳态前动力学来研究通过多种逆转录酶(RT)酶和DNA聚合酶(DNA pol)酶(例如人)相对于A相对于m 6 A的8-oxo-dGTP的掺入1型免疫缺陷病毒(HIV-1)RT和人类DNA polβ。结果表明,相对于A,与m 6 A相对,所有这些酶掺入8-oxo-dGTP的效率均较低。考虑到8-oxo-dG与A之间的嘌呤-嘌呤对的空间体积,m 6甲基化可能在很大程度上影响HG配对。因此,不利的是将8-氧代-dGTP掺入与m 6 A相反的生长链中。此外,已将阻碍与m 6 A相对的8-氧-dGTP掺入以在预定位置确定m 6A。在人类rRNA中。我们的研究可能会提供有关m 6 A在降低细胞8-oxo-dGTP诱变潜力中的作用的新见解。
