Cultures of a purine-requiring mutant of Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-104b), randomly bred hamster embryo cells, or Escherichia coli B(s-1) were treated with non-toxic doses of (3)H-labelled O(6)-methylguanine. DNA and RNA were isolated and subjected to enzymic digestion to nucleosides at pH8. The products of digestion were analysed by ion-exchange chromatography on columns of Dowex 50 (NH(4) (+) form) at pH8.9. No (3)H-labelled O(6)-methylguanosine was detected in nucleic acid digests. (3)H-labelled O(6)-methylguanine was O-demethylated yielding [(3)H]guanine in CHO-104b cells. Radioactivity in nucleic acid digests was associated with thymidine, guanosine, deoxyguanosine and an unidentified early-eluting product. Reports of similar unidentified products from nucleic acids labelled with various agents are discussed.
用无毒剂量的³H标记的O⁶-甲基鸟嘌呤处理中国仓鼠卵巢细胞(CHO-104b)的嘌呤需求突变体培养物、随机繁殖的仓鼠胚胎细胞或大肠杆菌B(s-1)。分离DNA和RNA,并在pH8条件下进行酶促消化成核苷。消化产物在pH8.9条件下通过Dowex 50(NH₄⁺形式)柱进行离子交换色谱分析。在核酸消化物中未检测到³H标记的O⁶-甲基鸟苷。在CHO-104b细胞中,³H标记的O⁶-甲基鸟嘌呤发生O-去甲基化,产生[³H]鸟嘌呤。核酸消化物中的放射性与胸苷、鸟苷、脱氧鸟苷和一种未鉴定的早期洗脱产物有关。讨论了用各种试剂标记核酸产生类似未鉴定产物的报道。
