Replication past the butadiene diepoxide-derived DNA adduct S-[4-(N(6)-deoxyadenosinyl)-2,3-dihydroxybutyl]glutathione by DNA polymerases.

ABSTRACT: 1,2,3,4-Diepoxybutane (DEB), a metabolite of the carcinogen butadiene, has been shown to cause glutathione (GSH)-dependent base substitution mutations, especially A:T to G:C mutations in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 [Cho, S. H., et al. (2010) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 23, 1544] and Escherichia coli TRG8 cells [Cho, S. H., and Guengerich, F. P. (2012) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 25, 1522]. We previously identified S-[4-(N(6)-deoxyadenosinyl)-2,3-dihydroxybutyl]GSH [N(6)dA-(OH)2butyl-GSH] as a major adduct in the reaction of S-(2-hydroxy-3,4-epoxybutyl)glutathione (DEB-GSH conjugate) with nucleosides and calf thymus DNA and in vivo in livers of mice and rats treated with DEB [Cho, S. H., and Guengerich, F. P. (2012) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 25, 706]. For investigation of the miscoding potential of the major D
