Photoactivated DNA analogs of substrates of the nucleotide excision repair system and their interaction with proteins of NER-competent extract of HeLa cells. Synthesis and application of long model DNA

Long linear DNA analogs of nucleotide excision repair (NER) substrates have been synthesized. They are 137-mer duplexes containing in their internal positions nucleotides with bulky substitutes imitating lesions with fluorochloroazidopyridyl and fluorescein groups introduced using spacer fragments a...

Description
Summary:Long linear DNA analogs of nucleotide excision repair (NER) substrates have been synthesized. They are 137-mer duplexes containing in their internal positions nucleotides with bulky substitutes imitating lesions with fluorochloroazidopyridyl and fluorescein groups introduced using spacer fragments at the 4N and 5C positions of dCMP and dUMP (Fap-dC- and Flu-dU-DNA) and DNA containing a (+)-cis-stereoisomer of benzo[a]pyrene-N2-deoxyguanidine (BP-dG-DNA, 131 bp). The interaction of the modified DNA duplexes with the proteins of NER-competent HeLa extract was investigated. The substrate properties of the model DNA in the reaction of specific excision were shown to vary in the series Fap-dC-DNA
