摘要: Two ways by which carcinogenic metals, such as Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), or Cd(II), may promote oxidative DNA damage, including direct effects consisting of activation oxygen species and mediation their attack on DNA, indirect through suppression cellular antimutagenic defenses, are discussed. The mechanisms the involve chelation a metal nuclear proteins, especially histones protamines, metabolic resulting complexes at close proximity to DNA. We found that human protamine HP2 has typical binding motif for Ni(II) Arg-Thr-His-, its N-terminus. A synthetic pentadecapeptide modeling this terminus formed strong chelates with these metals and, in addition, enhanced damage plus H2O2, but suppressed, though not completely, Cu(II) H2O2. Since protamines carry sperm, observed have spermicidal transgenerational man exposed epidemiologically. inhibition 8-oxo-dGTPases, class enzymes preventing incorporation 8-oxoguanine lesion from oxidatively-damaged deoxynucleotide pool into Cd(II) limited extent also were vitro inhibit enzymatic activity bacterial (MutT) (MTH1) 8-oxo dGTPases. This allow redox-inactive introduce promutagenic endogenously damaged 8-oxo-dGTP
