Formation of covalent deoxyribonucleic acid benzo[a]pyrene 4,5-epoxide adduct in mouse and rat skin. 1981

W Baer-Dubowska, and C Frayssinet, and K Alexandrov

The covalently bound products of [3H]benzo[a]pyrene (BP) were determined in the DNA from the skin of mice and rats. The quality and the distribution of bound products was similar. The formation of products corresponding to 4,5-dihydro-4,5-epoxy benzo[a]pyrene (BPE) and to a further metabolite of 9-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene bound to DNA were found in the 2 species at the 24 h end point.

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).
