The fluctuation of dNTP pools was similar after transformation treatment with alkylating mutagen glycidyl methacrylate(GMA) or Nmethyl- N'- nitro N- nitrosoguanidine (MNNG ). However,the gap between deoxyguanosine triphosphate + deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dGTP + dATP) pools and deoxythymidine triphosphate + deoxycytidine triphosphate (dTTP + dCTP) pools was greatly intensified. The measurements also indicated that the dNTP pools in transformed cells were quite different from those in normal cells. The results suggested that dNTP pools may play an important role in cell transformation展开更多
The induced mutation frequency by alkylating mutagen glycldyl methacrylate (GMA) and N-methyl-N'- nitro- N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was investigated with or without perturbation of deoxyribenucleoside triphosphate ...The induced mutation frequency by alkylating mutagen glycldyl methacrylate (GMA) and N-methyl-N'- nitro- N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was investigated with or without perturbation of deoxyribenucleoside triphosphate (dNTP)pools; the influence of short treatment at different concentrations of GMA or MNNG on dNTP pools was also explored. The results indicated that the induced mutation frequency increased greatly at high dosages of mutagen (GMA~ 64 μg/ml, MNNG~ 8 μg/ml) and the perturbation on dNTP pools was carried out before the treatment of mutagen; the short treatment with mutagen could induce distinct fluctuations of dNTP pools, but different mutagen might have different effects on dNTP pools.According to the results of the present study and other reports in literature, we conclude that dNTP pools may be the targets of alkylating mutagens and the fluctuations of dNTP pools are closely associated with mutagenesis展开更多
