title: 32P-postlabeling measurement of adenine N-1-oxide in cellular DNA exposed to hydrogen peroxide.
abstract: A 32P-postlabeling assay has been developed for monitoring the formation within DNA of adenine N-1-oxide, the specific H2O2-mediated oxidation product under nonradical conditions. This has required the chemical synthesis of both 2'-deoxyadenosine N-1-oxide 3'-monophosphate and 2'-deoxyadenosine N-1-oxide 5'-monophosphate, the substrate and the product of polynucleotide kinase mediated phosphorylation. Isolation of the substrate from the other nucleotides was found to be necessary in order to improve the rate of phosphorylation and to prevent self-radiolysis processes. [32P]-2'-deoxyadenosine N-1-oxide 5'-monophosphate was obtained after successive ion exchange and reverse-phase HPLC and was characterized by a microreaction. The sensitivity of the assay, which is close to 1 modified adenine N-1-oxide/10(6) bases, allowed the determination of this lesion within the DNA of cells exposed to nonlethal levels of H2O2.
