Abstract:
:The degradation in alkali of normal DNA and DNA alkylated with dimethyl sulphate (DMS), N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNUA) and N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENUA) has been investigated using analytical ultracentrifugation techniques. For control T7-DNA (w.st. denatured form 12.5 - 10(6) daltons) the rate of degradation at 37 degrees varies from 0.14 breaks/molecule/h in 0.1 M NaOH to 1.2 breaks/molecule/h in 0.4 M NaOH. When DNA is alkylated with reagents known to produce phosphotriesters addition of alkali leads to an initial rapid degradation not observed with control DNA. Ethyl phosphotriesters are hydrolysed at about half the rate of methyl phosphotriesters. Approximately one third of the methyl or ethyl phosphotriesters present hydrolyse to give breaks in the DNA chain.
