O6-methylguanine (O6-methylG) is believed to be the pre-mutagenic lesion responsible for mutational activation of the H-rasproto-oncogene in rats treated withN-methyl-N-nitro-sourea (MNU). Research on the repair ofO6-methylG has primarily focused on the methyltransferases. Potentially, other repair proteins may be involved in repair ofO6-methylG. We have investigated the effect ofEscherichia coliUvrABC excision repair onO6-methylG synthesized at the rat H-rasMNU activation site in a partial rat H-rassequence constructed in an M13mp vector. An oligonucleotide self-selection technique was used to identify progeny phage containing DNA replicated from theO6-methylG-containing strand. We found that excision repair can help protect against mutation byO6-methylG at the rat H-rasMNU activation site.
