Photoreactions of various 5-iodouracil-((I)U)-containing oligonucleotides have been investigated. It was found that d(GCA(I)UGC)2 undergoes a competitive C1' and C2' oxidation at the 5' side of the (I)U residue to give deoxyribonolactone-containing hexamer 1 and erythrose-containing hexamer 2, respectively. Upon beating under alkaline conditions, erythrose-containing hexamer 2 was shown to undergo a remarkably facile retroaldol reaction to give two fragments, both having phosphoroglycoaldehyde termini in high yields. On the basis of the chemical reactivity of 2, a new specific method for detection of the erythrose-containing sites resulting from deoxyribose C2' oxidation in DNA was devised. Erythrose-containing sites were prepared by photoirradiation of duplex (I)U-containing 13 mer 5'-d(CG(I)UGT(I)UTA(I)UAC(I)UG)-3'/5'-d(CAGTATAAACACG)-3'. After photoirradiation, the reaction mixture was treated with hot alkali and NaBH4 and then subjected to enzymatic digestion. HPLC analysis of the digested mixture revealed the formation of modified mononucleotides 25-28, allowing the quantification of the erythrose-containing sites being produced at the 5' side of all four (I)U residues of the 13 mer. These results indicate that this method can be used for the detection and quantification of erythrose-containing sites resulting from deoxyribose C2' oxidation in DNA.
