title: Immunological titration of 3-N-acetyl-hydroxyamino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a:3',2'-d) imidazole-rat liver DNA adducts.
abstract: Antibodies to N-(guanosin-8-yl)-3-N-acetylamino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a :3',2'-d)imidazole were elicited in rabbits by immunization with a conjugate formed between this compound and bovine serum albumin. The specificity of the antibodies was studied by radioimmunoassay. These antibodies were used to titrate the adducts formed in liver DNA of rats treated with 3-N-acetyl-hydroxyamino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a:3',2'-d)imidazo le,p6 a supposed metabolite of the mutagenic amine 3-amino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a:3',2'-d)imidazole (Glu-P-3). It is found that Glu-P-3 residues are covalently bound to the C8 of guanine in acetylated form (70%) and deacetylated form (30%).
