Reaction of N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitroguanidine and N-methyl-N-nitroso-p-Toluenesulfonamide with DNA in vitro

Abstract

Radioactivity from N-[14C]methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine or N-[14C]methyl-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide is incorporated into DNA in vitro. The principal product formed is 7-methylguanine. The extent of methylation of DNA by both these agents increases with increasing OH− concentration. Methylation by N-[14C]methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine is increased by the presence of a thiol while methylation by …
