hMutSα- and hMutLα-dependent phosphorylation of p53 in response to DNA methylator damage

hMSH2⋅hMSH6 heterodimer (hMutSα) and hMLH1⋅hPMS2 complex (hMutLα) have been implicated in the cytotoxic response of mammalian cells to a number of DNA-damaging compounds, including methylating agents that produce O6-methylguanine (O6MeG) adducts. This study demonstrates that O6MeG lesions, in which the damaged base is paired with either T or C, are subject to excision repair in a reaction that depends on a functional mismatch repair system. Furthermore, treatment of human cells with the SN1 DNA methylators N-methyl-N-nitrosourea or N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine results in p53 phosphorylation on serine residues 15 and 392, and these phosphorylation events depend on the presence of functional hMutSα and hMutLα. Coupled with the previous demonstration that O6MeG⋅T and O6MeG⋅C pairs are recognized by hMutSα, these results implicate action of the mismatch repair system in the initial step of a damage-signaling cascade that can lead to cell-cycle checkpoint activation or cell death in response to DNA methylator damage.

Auxin-Growth Relationships in Maize Coleoptiles and Pea Internodes and Control by Auxin of the Tissue Sensitivity to Auxin

Growth of a zone of maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptiles and pea (Pisum sativum L.) internodes was greatly suppressed when the organ was decapitated or ringed at an upper position with the auxin transport inhibitor N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA) mixed with lanolin. The transport of apically applied 3H-labeled indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was similarly inhibited by NPA. The growth suppressed by NPA or decapitation was restored by the IAA mixed with lanolin and applied directly to the zone, and the maximal capacity to respond to IAA did not change after NPA treatment, although it declined slightly after decapitation. The growth rate at IAA saturation was greater than the rate in intact, nontreated plants. It was concluded that growth is limited and controlled by auxin supplied from the apical region. In maize coleoptiles the sensitivity to IAA increased more than 3 times when the auxin level was reduced over a few hours with NPA treatment. This result, together with our previous result that the maximal capacity to respond to IAA declines in pea internodes when the IAA level is enhanced for a few hours, indicates that the IAA concentration-response relationship is subject to relatively slow adaptive regulation by IAA itself. The spontaneous growth recovery observed in decapitated maize coleoptiles was prevented by an NPA ring placed at an upper position of the stump, supporting the view that recovery is due to regenerated auxin-producing activity. The sensitivity increase also appeared to participate in an early recovery phase, causing a growth rate greater than in intact plants.
