Research Abstract |
8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the major oxidative base lesions in DNA or nucleotides, and is highly mutagenic because it can pair with adenine as well as cytosine. To minimize accumulation of 8-oxoG in mammalian genomes, MTH1 hydrolyzes 8-oxo-dGTP to 8-oxo-dGMP, and OGG1 excises 8-oxoG paired with cytosine in DNA, while MUTYH excises adenine inserted opposite 8-oxoG in template DNA during DNA replication and whose deficiency is known to cause MUTYH-associated familial adenomatous polyposis. We found that the buildup of 8-oxoG in nuclear or mitochondrial DNA initiates MUTYH-dependent cell death, and unveiled its regulatory mechanisms, thus demonstrating that the cell death is crucial for tumor suppression.
