We have developed fluorescent probes for the detection of strand scission in the excision repair of oxidatively damaged bases. They were hairpin-shaped oligonucleotides, each containing an isomer of thymine glycol or 5,6-dihydrothymine as a damaged base in the center, with a fluorophore and a quencher at the 5′- and 3′-ends, respectively. Fluorescence was detected when the phosphodiester linkage at the damage site was cleaved by the enzyme, because the short fragment bearing the fluorophore could not remain in a duplex form hybridized to the rest of the molecule at the incubation temperature. The substrate specificities of Escherichia coli endonuclease III and its human homolog, NTH1, determined by using these probes agreed with those determined previously by gel electrophoresis using 32P-labeled substrates. Kinetic parameters have also been determined by this method. Since different fluorophores were attached to the oligonucleotides containing each lesion, reactions with two types of substrates were analyzed separately in a single tube, by changing the excitation and detection wavelengths. These probes were degraded during an incubation with a cell extract. Therefore, phosphorothioate linkages were incorporated to protect the probes from nonspecific nucleases, and the base excision repair activity was successfully detected in HeLa cells.
