Effect of alkyl-N-purine DNA glycosylase overexpression on cellular resistance to bifunctional alkylating agents

Abstract

Increased activity of alkyl-N-purine DNA glycosylase (ANPG; a.k.a. N3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase) has been correlated with resistance to both chloroethylnitrosoureas and nitrogen mustards. Also, overexpression of the human glycosylase in Escherichia coli results in resistance to alkylating agents. To determine how overexpression of the protein affects resistance to these bifunctional alkylating agents in mammalian cells, wild-type CHO-AA8 …
