The role of reactions of conjugation with uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid (UDPGA) and with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate (PAPS) in modification of the mutagenic effect of diethyl nitrosamine (DENA), nitrosomorpholine (NM) and cyclophosphane (CP) was studied by the Ames test. It was shown that adding UDPGA to the activating mixture significantly decreased the level of the mutagenic effect of DENA, NM and CP on bacteria Salmonella typhimurium TA 1950, when S9 and microsomal fractions of rat liver homogenate were used. Adding PAPS to the activating mixture when S9 and cytosole fractions were used, did not affect mutagenic action of DENA on S. typhimurium TA 1950 and TA 1535, enhancing the mutagenic effect of CP on TA 1535, with no such influence on TA 1950. Introduction of PAPS into the activating mixture elevated the mutagenic effect of NM on both bacterial strains using S9 fraction but not cytosole fraction. |
