Abstact

To investigate the mutation mechanism of purine transition in DNA damaged with methoxyamine, a DNA dodecamer with the sequence d(CGCGAATTmo(4)CGCG), where mo(4)C is 2'-deoxy-N(4)-methoxycytidine, has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined. Two dodecamers form a B-form duplex. Electron density maps clearly show that one of the two mo(4)C residues forms a pair with a guanine residue of the opposite strand, the geometry being the canonical Watson-Crick type, and that the other mo(4)C residue forms a wobble pair with the opposite guanine residue. These two pairings are ascribed to the tautomerization of the methoxylated cytosine moieties between the amino and imino forms.
