Liquid chromatography with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) was employed to quantify O6-[4-oxo-4-(3-pyridyl)butyl]-2-deoxyguanosine (O6-pobdG), a mutagenic adduct formed by pyridyloxobutylating nitrosamines. Selected reaction monitoring (SRM) of the neutral loss of the sugar from protonated molecules of the adduct, [M + H − 116]+, was utilized for detection of O6-pobdG in pyridyloxobutylated DNA from both in vitro and in vivo sources. Quantitation was based on isotope dilution with synthetic O6-[1,2,2-2H3-4-oxo-4-(3-pyridyl)butyl]-2-deoxyguanosine. The detection limits in this study were less than 5 fmol of pure standard and 50 fmol in 1.5 mg of DNA. This method was validated by comparing adduct levels measured with the LC/ESI-MS/MS method to those obtained with radiochemical methods in DNA alkylated with the model pyridyloxobutylating agent, [5-3H]4-(acetoxymethylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone ([5-3H]NNKOAc). The pyridyloxobutyl 2-deoxyguanosine adduct coeluting with the deuterated standard disappeared when NNKOAc-treated DNA had been reacted with the repair protein, O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase. This result confirms that the coeluting peak is solely O6-pobdG. Preliminary studies with liver DNA isolated from NNKOAc-treated mice demonstrated that this method can be used to quantify O6-pobG in DNA from in vivo sources. The improved sensitivity and specificity of adduct detection afforded by this LC/ESI-MS/MS method will allow us to explore the role of O6-pobdG in the toxicological properties of pyridyloxobutylating nitrosamines. |
