Immunological titration of 3-N-acetyl-hydroxyamino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a:3',2'-d) imidazole-rat liver DNA adducts. 1985

E Hebert, and G Saint-Ruf, and M Leng

Antibodies to N-(guanosin-8-yl)-3-N-acetylamino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a :3',2'-d)imidazole were elicited in rabbits by immunization with a conjugate formed between this compound and bovine serum albumin. The specificity of the antibodies was studied by radioimmunoassay. These antibodies were used to titrate the adducts formed in liver DNA of rats treated with 3-N-acetyl-hydroxyamino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a:3',2'-d)imidazo le,p6 a supposed metabolite of the mutagenic amine 3-amino-4,6-dimethyldipyrido(1,2-a:3',2'-d)imidazole (Glu-P-3). It is found that Glu-P-3 residues are covalently bound to the C8 of guanine in acetylated form (70%) and deacetylated form (30%).

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).

D006151 Guanosine A purine nucleoside that has guanine linked by its N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is a component of ribonucleic acid and its nucleotides play important roles in metabolism. (From Dorland, 28th ed)
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
