[The dependence of DNA repair induced by genetically hazardous exposures on the ionic strength of the medium containing the cells].

The dependence of UV-induced unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) in non-stimulated lymphocytes of human peripheral blood on the ionic strength (mu) of the culture medium has been shown. With the level of mu lower or higher than physiological (mu ph) the UDS significantly decreases. The effect of modification of mu due to changes in ionic strength is absent in the lymphocytes of patients with the classic form of xeroderma pigmentosum. This phenomenon may become useful for development of a new test revealing cells with genetically or physiologically changed system of UV-induced DNA repair. Mechanisms of investigated phenomenon, particularly their dependence on the chromatin structure, as well as the influence of ionic strength on binding the repair enzymes with DNA are discussed.

[Attenuation of protein-nuclein interactions induced by chemical mutagens in a human fibroblast culture].

Using nucleoprotein celite chromatography, it has been shown that DNA of human cultured fibroblasts was strongly bound to the proteins of the nuclear matrix. N-methyl-N-nitrosourea and prospidin-active antitumor agents with marked mutagenic action--were shown to attenuate the interactions, which appeared to be partially sensitive in cultured fibroblasts from patients with Down's syndrome.

[Strengthening of the DNA-protein complex during the stationary aging of cultured cells].

Accumulation of DNA-protein crosslinks during "stationary phase ageing" (i.e. with the increase of non-proliferating period) of cultured transformed Chinese hamster cells and normal embryonic diploid human fibroblasts was determined by the improved method of column chromatography using hydroxylapatite of 14C-valine, 14C-leucine and 3H-thymidine-labelled cell homogenates. Such an accumulation, however, was not observed during "stationary phase ageing" of xeroderma pigmentosum human fibroblasts. Possible mechanisms of the above phenomenon are discussed.

[Detection of post-repair DNA damage and heterogeneity of its distribution in fractions of metaphase chromosomes of various sizes].

The distribution of single-strand DNA breaks induced by various N-methyl-N-nitrosourea concentrations in S-phase of the cell cycle has been studied in Djungarian hamster fibroblast culture in the isolated samples of fractions of metaphase chromosomes of varying size. For the first time, a dose-effect relationship between the molecular mass of single-stranded DNA fragments isolated in an alkaline sucrose gradient from small chromosomes and the lack of the effect on DNA in large chromosomes has been established. The phenomenon detected is being discussed in terms of structural heterogeneity of interphase nuclear chromatin, i.e. irregular distribution of eu- and heterochromatin in small and large chromosomes. Another possible explanation is the storage of various damaged chromosome fragments in small chromosomes. The data obtained, apart from their significance for chromatin structure analysis, can serve as an experimental basis for the detection of, otherwise undetectable, postreparative molecular DNA damages.

[Formation of DNA--protein crosslinks and their possible elimination in cultures of normal human fibroblasts after exposure to embichin].

New methods of radiometry and fractionation of cell lysates on hydroxyapatite were applied to determine the crosslinkage between DNA and protein induced by embiquin in cell culture of normal human skin fibroblasts. Such crosslinks were found to be formed; they were eliminated in long-term cultivation of the cells after mutagen treatment.

[Structural derangements in deoxyribonucleoprotein complex damaged by N-nitroso-N-methylurea].

The effect of deoxyribonucleoproteid (DNP) solubilization under conditions of the ionic strength of the medium approaching the physiological one depended greatly after the treatment with a mutagen - N-nitroso-N-methylurea (NMU) on the NMU concentration. Apparently, for the change of DNA into a soluble state the critical number of groups in the DNA and protein should be modified. On the basis of the data obtained by circular dichroism and viscosimetry a conclusion was drawn that after the NMU treatment the DNP complex became soluble in the solvents with the ionic strength approaching the physiological one, chiefly as the result of labilization and dissociation of DNA-protein bonds.
