Chromatographic comparisons were made between radioactive adducts derived from the DNA of cells treated with [3H]7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and adducts derived from calf thymus DNA or nucleotides which had been treated in vitro with the synthetic syn 3,4-dihydrodiol 1,2-epoxide of this same carcinogen. This confirmed that three of the adducts formed in cells were derived from reaction of this particular dihydrodiol epoxide with deoxyadenosine while a fourth adduct was derived from its reaction with deoxyguanosine. After reaction of the dihydrodiol epoxide with polyadenylic acid, two ribonucleoside adducts were characterized by spectroscopic methods and were shown to have arisen from the cis opening of the epoxide ring at C1 by the amino group of adenine residues.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D003839 Deoxyadenosines Adenosine molecules which can be substituted in any position, but are lacking one hydroxyl group in the ribose part of the molecule. Adenine Deoxyribonucleosides,Adenylyldeoxyribonucleosides,Deoxyadenosine Derivatives,Deoxyribonucleosides, Adenine,Derivatives, Deoxyadenosine
D003849 Deoxyguanosine A nucleoside consisting of the base guanine and the sugar deoxyribose.
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D000241 Adenosine A nucleoside that is composed of ADENINE and D-RIBOSE. Adenosine or adenosine derivatives play many important biological roles in addition to being components of DNA and RNA. Adenosine itself is a neurotransmitter. Adenocard,Adenoscan
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.
