From the Loss of mismatch repair leads to tumor
resistance by desensitizing cells to specific DNA-damaging agents,
including the anticancer drug cisplatin. Cisplatin analogs with a
diamminocyclohexane (DACH) carrier ligand, such as oxaliplatin and
Pt(DACH)Cl2, do not elicit resistance in mismatch
repair-deficient cells and therefore present promising therapeutic
agents. This study compared the interactions of the purified
Escherichia coli mismatch repair protein MutS with DNA
modified to contain cisplatin and DACH adducts. MutS recognized the
cisplatin-modified DNA with 2-fold higher affinity in comparison to the
DACH-modified DNA. ADP stimulated the binding of MutS to
cisplatin-modified DNA, whereas it had no effect on the MutS
interaction with DNA modified by DACH or EN adducts. In parallel
cytotoxicity experiments, methylation-deficient E. coli dam
mutants were 2-fold more sensitive to cisplatin than DACH compounds. A
panel of recombination-deficient mutants showed striking sensitivity to
both compounds, indicating that both types of adducts are strong
replication blocks. The differential affinity of MutS for DNA modified
with the different platinum analogs could provide the molecular
basis for the distinctive cellular responses to cisplatin and oxaliplatin.
MutS Preferentially Recognizes Cisplatin- over
Oxaliplatin-modified DNA*
