Formation and Properties of DNA Adducts Generated by Reactions of Abasic Sites with 1,2-Aminothiols Including Cysteamine, Cysteine Methyl Ester, and Peptides Containing N -Terminal Cysteine Residues.
Chemical Research in Toxicology 2024 January 6
The reaction of 1,2-aminothiol groups with aldehyde residues in aqueous solution generates thiazolidine products, and this process has been developed as a catalyst-free click reaction for bioconjugation. The work reported here characterized reactions of the biologically relevant 1,2-aminothiols including cysteamine, cysteine methyl ester, and peptides containing N -terminal cysteine residues with the aldehyde residue of apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites in DNA oligomers. These 1,2-aminothiol-containing compounds rapidly generated adducts with AP sites in single-stranded and double-stranded DNA. NMR and MALDI-TOF-MS analyses provided evidence that the reaction generated a thiazolidine product. Conversion of an AP site to a thiazolidine-AP adduct protected against the rapid cleavage normally induced at AP sites by the endonuclease action of the enzyme APE1 and the AP-lyase activity of the biogenic amine spermine. In the presence of excess 1,2-aminothiols, the thiazolidine-AP adducts underwent slow strand cleavage via a β-lyase reaction that generated products with 1,2-aminothiol-modified sugar residues on the 3'-end of the strand break. In the absence of excess 1,2-aminothiols, the thiazolidine-AP adducts dissociated to release the parent AP-containing oligonucleotide. The properties of the thiazolidine-AP adducts described here mirror critical properties of SRAP proteins HMCES and YedK that capture AP sites in single-stranded regions of cellular DNA and protect them from cleavage.
