Revised Manuscript Received October 12, 1988 abstract: Ultraviolet irradiation of DNA produces a variety of pyrimidine base damages. The activities of Escherichia coli endonuclease III and a human lymphoblast endonuclease that incises ultraviolet-irradiated DNA at modified cytosine moieties were compared. Both the bacterial and human enzymes release this cytosine photoproduct as a free base. Theseglycosylase activities are linear with times of reaction, quantities of enzyme, and irradiation dosages of the substrates. Both enzyme activities are similarly inhibited by the addition of monovalent and divalent cations. Analysis by DNA sequencing identified loci of endonucleolytic incision as cytosines. These are neither cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, 6-(l, 2-dihydro-2-oxo-4-pyrimidinyl)-5-methyl-2, 4 (l/f, 3//)-pyrimidinediones, nor apyrimidinic sites. This cytosine photoproduct is separable from unmodified cytosine by high-performance liquid chromatography. This separationshould facilitate identification of this modified cytosine and elucidation of its biological significance.Escherichia coli endonuclease III has been shown to be responsible for the repair of various monomeric pyrimidine damages in DNA, including both damages produced by UV1 irradiation (Radman, 1976; Gates & Linn, 1977) and chemical oxidation caused by chemical or physical agents (Gates & Linn, 1977; Demple & Linn, 1980, 1982; Katcher & Wallace, 1983; Breimer & Lindahl, 1984). An endonuclease activity that incises ultraviolet-irradiated DNA was found in cultured human cells (Brent, 1972; Duker & Teebor, 1975). It was demonstrated that this activity, termed the human UV en-donuclease, is directed against non-pyrimidine dimer lesions in UV-irradiatedDNA. Thishuman endonuclease, like E. coli endonuclease III, also recognizes base damages in Os04-oxidized or X-irradiated DNAs (Brent, 1973, 1976, 1983; Doetsch et al., 1987). This activity was suggested to be the human counterpart to endonuclease III (Teebor et al., 1978). Thymine glycol had been thought to be the common endonuclease-sensitive lesion produced by all of these treatments and therefore the site of incision of all these DNA substrates, both by endonuclease III and by the human activity (Teebor et al., 1978). However, it has recently been established that a DNA cytosine photoproduct is a substrate for both endonuclease III (Doetsch et al., 1986; Helland et al., 1986; Weiss & Duker, 1986, 1987) and a calf thymus endonuclease following UV irradiation of the DNA (Doetsch et al., 1986; Helland et al „1986).
