The mutagenicity of an oxidized form of dATP, 2-hydroxydeoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate (2-OH-dATP), was examined using an SV40 origin-dependent in vitro replication system with a HeLa extract. 2-OH-dATP induced mutations in a dose-dependent manner and elicited substitution and deletion mutations. Of the substitutions, a G.C--&gt;A.T transition including a tandem (CC--&gt;TT) mutation was mainly observed. This result agrees with our previous observation that mammalian DNA polymerase alpha misincorporates the oxidized nucleotide opposite C, but is in contrast to the finding that 2-OH-dATP elicits G.C--&gt;T.A transversions in Escherichia coli. This type of mutation was also elicited, but to a lesser extent. Interestingly, the mutagenicity of 2-OH-dATP was enhanced in the presence of 2-hydroxydeoxyadenosine 5'-diphosphate, an inhibitor of the MTH1 protein, suggesting that this protein functions in the hydrolysis of 2-OH-dATP in the replication reaction mixture, and probably in living cells. These results indicate that 2-OH-dATP is mutagenic and that its mutagenicity is suppressed by the MTH1 protein in mammalian cells.
