Associations of Hprt with chemical compounds

  • In order to determine the sensitivity of mutant induction in the Hprt lymphocyte assay for detecting tumorigenic doses of thiotepa, Fischer 344 rats were treated for 4 weeks with thiotepa using a procedure adapted from a carcinogenesis protocol [16].
  • The mutational signature of alpha-hydroxytamoxifen at Hprt locus in Chinese hamster cells [23].
  • Hprt mutation frequency was increased in alveolar type II cells from rats exposed to 10 and 100 mg/kg of alpha-quartz, 100 mg/kg carbon black and 100 mg/kg titanium dioxide [24].
  • The majority of thiotepa-induced base pair substitutions in the Hprt gene occurred with the mutated purine on the non-transcribed DNA strand, while no strand-related bias was found for mutations in the lacI gene [18].
  • Sequence specificity of Hprt lymphocyte mutation in rats fed the hepatocarcinogen 2-acetylaminofluorene [25].
 

Other interactions of Hprt

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Hprt

  • The gene encoding hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase as target for mutational analysis: PCR cloning and sequencing of the cDNA from the rat [15].
  • Mutant clones collected from control and BD-exposed mice were propagated and analyzed by RT-PCR to produce Hprt cDNA for sequencing [30].
  • Sequence analysis of lacI mutant DNA and Hprt mutant cDNA produced similar overall mutation patterns: G:C-->T:A transversion was the most common base pair substitution (32% of independent mutations in the lacI gene and 28% of Hprt mutations), and deletions and insertions accounted for 34% of mutations in the lacI gene and 28% in the Hprt gene [18].
  • A high performance liquid chromatography study of the intracellular nucleotide pools labeled with [3H]hypoxanthine was carried out in host cells lacking hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase, and the depletion of guanine nucleotides demonstrated that the intracellular parasite enzyme was being inhibited by the drug [31].
  • Thus, it is likely that hypoxanthine is salvaged when present alone and is oxidized generating the reperfusion injury when the salvage is prevented by guanine that competes with hypoxanthine from the same site of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase [32].
