Research Abstract

To elucidate the response to oxidative stress in eukaryotic cells, the effect of an oxidized nucleotide, 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-oxo-dGTP) generated from dGTP with an active oxygen, on the S-phase progression was studied using DNA replication system in Xenopus egg lysate with a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) template as a model of DNA synthesis at the S-phase. Amounts of newly synthesized DNA were reduced according to the increasing concentration of 8-oxo-dGTP. Pulse labeling-analysis revealed that the 8-oxo-dGTP could delay the rate of long chain synthesis by DNA polymeraseδ rather than the initiation by DNA polymerase α-primase. This delay was recovered by the addition of a protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine. These results indicate that the staurosporine-sensitive protein kinase, such. As protein kinase C family, may contribute for the delay of DNA synthesis by 8-oxo-dGTP. Ultraviolet (UV)-irradiated ssDNA also caused the delay of DNA synthesis on undamaged templates, however, this delay was not recovered by staurosporine. Therefore, the mechanism for delay of DNA synthesis by 8-oxo-dGTP may be different from that by UV-lesions.
