title: N-2 acetylation of 2'-deoxyguanosine by coffee mutagens, methylglyoxal and hydrogen peroxide.
abstract: Coffee shows direct-acting mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and most of this mutagenicity is due to the synergistic effects of methylglyoxal and hydrogen peroxide. The modifications of deoxyribonucleosides by methylglyoxal plus hydrogen peroxide were studied in vitro. When 2'-deoxyguanosine (6.25 mumole) was treated with methylglyoxal (125 mumole) and hydrogen peroxide (125 mumole) in 5 ml of 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) at 37 degrees C for 3 h, N2-acetyl-2'-deoxyguanosine was formed with a yield of 1.1%. Its formation increased time-dependently. By contrast, no appreciable modification of other deoxynucleosides was detected after their incubation with methylglyoxal and hydrogen peroxide under similar conditions. N2-Acetyl-2'-deoxyguanosine was also formed during incubation of 2'-deoxyguanosine with instant coffee.
