Recently developed PCR-based methods for nucleic acid fingerprinting can be used as sampling tools with general applicability in molecular biology, evolution and genetics. These methods include arbitrarily primed PCR (AP-PCR; <span>Welsh and McClelland, 1990</span>) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD; <span>Williams et al., 1990</span>) for the fingerprinting of DNA, and RNA arbitrarily primed PCR (RAP-PCR; <span>Welsh et al., 1992a</span>) and differential display (DD; <span>Liang and Pardee, 1992</span>) for the fingerprinting of RNA. Novel ways of looking at genetic control are facilitated by the high data-acquisition capabilities of the fingerprinting methods. In this article, we review some of the applications of DNA fingerprinting to the study of mutagenesis, and of RNA fingerprinting to the study of normal and abnormal signal transduction. We propose that these fingerprinting approaches may also have applications in the study of senescence and aging.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100937,"journal":{"name":"Mutation Research/DNAging","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0921-8734(95)00026-3","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18572755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These changes have generally been implicated in aging. Oxidation of the methyl group of thymidine residues in DNA is known to result in the formation 5-hydroxymethyl-2′-deoxyuridine (5HmdUrd). We have utilized <em>Bacillus subtilis</em> phage SPO1 DNA as a model of oxidatively damaged DNA. In this phage, all thymine (Thy) residues are replaced by 5-hydroxymethyluracil (5HmUra), but the species is naturally devoid of other oxidatively-induced DNA lesions. Particular attention was paid to the behavior of 5HmUra-containing DNA as a target for several enzymes employing DNA as substrate; restriction endonucleases, dam DNA methylase and T4 DNA ligase. We noticed that susceptibility of SPO1 DNA varied when different restriction endonucleases having 5HmUra in the restriction sites were tested. Endonucleolytic cleavage brought about <em>Sau</em>3A proceeded as effectively with SPO1 DNA as with conventional DNA (lambda phage). The same was true when the ligation of <em>Sau</em>3A sites was performed with T4 DNA ligase. In contrast, both endonucleolytic cleavage and ligation were slower in SPO1 DNA, compared with lambda phage, when Taq I and T4 DNA ligase were used for restriction and ligation, respectively. We also noticed that SPO1 phage does not naturally contain N<sup>6</sup>-methyladenine (N<sup>6</sup>MeAde) opposite 5HmUra, i.e., no hydrolysis of SPO1 DNA was observed when assessed with methylation-dependent restriction endonuclease <em>Dpn</em>I. Our results show that the presence of 5HmUra in the respective site of DNA does not, per se, prevent the activity of restriction endonucleases, ligases or DNA methylases. These data support the view that oxidation of Thy to 5HmUra in target DNA does not necessarily result in substantial deterioration in the functions of DNA processing enzymes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100937,"journal":{"name":"Mutation Research/DNAging","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0921-8734(95)90005-5","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18860148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The deletion breakpoint occurs at a 16-bp direct repeat present in the cytochrome oxidase I and ATPase 6 genes. This deletion in rats is similar in size and location to the 5.0-kb deletion observed in human mtDNA. The proportion of rat mtDNA with this 4.8-kb deletion was quantitated by a competitive PCR assay.
