N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced forward mutations within the first 540 base-pairs of thelacI gene ofEscherichia coliwere cloned and sequenced. In total, 167 MNNG-induced independent mutations were characterized, with G · C to A · T transitions accounting for all but three of the mutations. This mutagenic specificity is consistent with the mispairing predicted by the methylation of the O6position of guanine. The characterization of such large numbers of mutations permitted an analysis of the influence of local DNA sequence on mutagenesis. This analysis revealed a strong influence by the 5′ flanking base. On average, guanine residues preceded (5′) by a guanine or an adenine residue were, respectively, nine times and five times more likely to mutate after treatment with MNNG than those preceded by a pyrimidine residue.
