Abstract：
:This investigation was designed to study whether methylation of liver chromatin DNA by dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) and the subsequent in vivo removal of DNA-bound methylated products are random. Liver chromatin DNA was fractionated into nuclease-digestible and nondigestible material 4 hr following the administration of [3H]DMN (0.5 mg/250 muCi/100 g body weight). Digestion of such methylated liver chromatin with pancreatic DNase I or micrococcal nuclease and analysis of nuclease-digested acid-soluble products revealed a discrepancy between the radioactivity released (72%) and the nucleotides released (50%) as measured by the absorbance at 260 nm. This discrepancy disappeared, and the rate and extent of release of both the radioactivity and the absorbance at 260 nm were identical when the total purified DNA isolated from methylated chromatin was used as the substrate instead of chromatin DNA in the nuclease reaction. These results, together with the fact that guanine contents of the DNA of the two fractions of the chromatin isolated by nuclease digestion were identical, suggest that methylation of the nuclease-accessible region of hepatic chromatin DNA is relatively greater than that of the inaccessible region. The study of the removal of methylated products in the accessible region of the chromatin DNA further reveals that, of the methylated products present at 4 hr, 62% is lost by 3 days, 87% is lost by 1 week and 94% is lost by 2 weeks. However, loss from the nuclease-inaccessible region of chromatin DNA is only 27% by 3 days, 49% by 1 week, and 86% by 2 weeks, thereby suggesting that the removal of methylated products from this region of chromatin DNA is relatively slower compared with that from the nuclease-accessible region of chromatin-DNA. The results of this study thus indicated (a) an increased methylation and faster rate of removal of DMN-induced methylated products in nuclease-accessible regions of chromatin DNA and (b) decreased methylation and slower rate of removal from the nuclease-inaccessible regions of chromatin DNA. It is concluded that the distribution and removal of DMN-induced methylated products in liver chromatin DNA is nonrandom as measured by this technique.
