Abstract:
:Several studies in the literature indicate that histones (lysine rich proteins found associated with DNA in eukaryotic chromatin), as well as poly-L-lysine, can be photocross-linked by ultraviolet (UV) light to DNA in which 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine has been substituted for thymidine. To gain some insight into the possible nature of this cross-linking, we have studied the photoreactions occurring in deoxygenated aqueous solutions containing 5-bromouracil (I) (BrUra) or 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (III) (BrdUrd) and ethylamine, a lysine side chain analog. In the case of I this reaction produced the ring opened compound N-(N'-ethylcarbamoyl)-3-amino-2-bromoacrylamide (Ia). A small amount of N-(N'-ethylcarbamoyl)-3-ethylamino-2-bromoacrylamide (Ic) was also isolated. It was found that purified Ia, standing in the presence of ethylamine, was gradually converted to Ic in a dark reaction. The beta and alpha anomers of N-(N'-ethylcarbamoyl)-3-(2'deoxyribofuranos-1'-yl) amino-2-bromoacrylamide (IIIa and IIIb respectively) were isolated as products in the photoreaction of III with ethylamine; the alpha anomer was produced in a dark reaction from the beta anomer. The identity of these anomers was established by comparison of their proton NMR spectra with those of the four corresponding alpha and beta furanosyl and pyranosyl isomeric nucleosides of thymine, which are presented in the Appendix. A study was also made of the reaction of I with methylamine; a ring opened product analogous to Ia, viz. N-(N'-methylcarbamoyl)-3-amino-2-bromoacrylamide (IIa) was formed. A similar study with 5-bromo-1-methyluracil produced N-(N'-methylcarbamoyl)-3-methylamino-2-bromoacrylamide (IIc) as a product. Likewise, the reaction of 5-chlorouracil with ethylamine was studied and N-(N'-ethylcarbamoyl)-3-amino-2-chloroacrylamide (Ie), which is analogous in structure to Ia, was found to be produced. Structural identifications were made through use of UV spectroscopy, high resolution 1H-NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and, in the case of Ia and IIa, 13C-NMR spectroscopy. In the BrUra and BrdUrd reaction systems, described above, dehalogenation reactions accounted for a major portion of the products. The yields of ring opened products, determined at pH 10, ranged from a high of 10.3% in the BrUra-ethylamine system to a low of 1.7% in the MeBrUra-methylamine system.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
