Previous experiments on DNA sequence context
reported that base modification, replication, and repair are affected
by the nature of neighbor bases. We now report that repair by mammalian alkylpurine-DNA-N-glycosylases (APNG) of 15-mer
oligonucleotides with a central
1,N6-ethenoadenine ( A), flanked by 5'
and 3' tandem bases, is also highly sequence dependent.
Oligonucleotides with the central sequences -GG AGG- or -CC ACC-
are repaired 3-5-fold more efficiently than those containing
-AA AAA- or -TT ATT- when using human or mouse APNG. Melting curves
of the same duplexes showed that oligomers with G·C/C·G neighbors
were less denatured than those with A·T/T·A neighbors at 37 °C.
This sequence-dependent difference in denaturation correlates with the relative thermodynamic stability of oligomers with
G·C/C·G or A·T/T·A neighbors. The dependence of repair on thermal stability was confirmed by enzyme reactions performed over
0-45 °C. Under these conditions, repair of A flanked by G·C/C·G was dramatically increased at 37 °C with continuous
increase up to 45 °C, in contrast to that with flanking A·T/T·A
pairs, which was in agreement with the degree of denaturation of these duplexes. These results indicate that the thermodynamic stability conferred by base pairs flanking A plays an essential role in maintaining the integrity of the duplex structure which is necessary for repair.
