Effect of Aminofluorene and (Acetylamino)fluorene Adducts on the DNA Replication Mediated by Escherichia coli Polymerases I (Klenow Fragment) and III

Abstract: N-(Deoxyguanosin-C8-yl)-2-(acetylamino)fluorene (dG-C8-AAF) and N-(deoxyguanosin-C8-yl)-2-aminofluorene (dG-C8-AF) are the two major DNA adducts induced by the chemical carcinogen 2-(acetylamino)fluorene (AAF). Molecular modeling shows that, in the DNA double helix, dG-C8-AF can maintain an anti-structure and normal base pairing, while dG-C8-AAF favors a syn-structure and causes base displacement. In the phi X174 RF DNA-Escherichia coli transfection system, it has been found that dG-C8-AF is 7-10-fold less let… Show more

“…Although structurally similar, AF and AAF elicit significantly different biological responses. For example, the C8-dGuo-adduct of AF is bypassed by the E. coli pol III holoenzyme, although the efficiency of the bypass is dependent on the sequence (20,41). Pol III bypassed the C8-AF-adduct at the G 3 -position of the NarI recognition sequence with noticeably lower efficiency than modification of the G 1 -or G 2 -positions (20).…”

“…High-fidelity polymerases including replicative eukaryotic Pol δ 8 and E. coli Pol III 9 preferentially insert correct C and misinsert some A opposite [AF]G in vitro , but are impeded by the adduct 10-14 . However, the bypass of DNA lesions in vivo predominantly involves specialized translesion synthesis (TLS) Y-family polymerases that replace stalled high-fidelity polymerases 15-17 .…”

“…The mutagenic consequences of each adduct are also quite distinct. The dG-C8-AAF adduct results in mostly frameshift mutations in bacteria, whereas the dG-C8-AF adduct produces predominantly base substitution mutations (2)(3)(4). These different properties are likely to be the result of differences in the structures that these adducts assume in DNA in the active site of the DNA polymerase.…”
