Altered dNTP pools accelerate tumor formation in mice.
Alterations in deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) pools have been linked to increased mutation rates and genome instability in unicellular organisms and cell cultures. However, the role of dNTP pool changes in tumor development in mammals remains unclear. In this study, we present a mouse model with a point mutation at the allosteric specificity site of ribonucleotide reductase, RRM1-Y285A. This mutation reduced ribonucleotide reductase activity, impairing the synthesis of deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) and deoxyguanosine triphosphate (dGTP). Heterozygous Rrm1+/Y285A mice exhibited distinct alterations in dNTP pools across various organs, shorter lifespans and earlier tumor onset compared with wild-type controls. Mutational spectrum analysis of tumors revealed two distinct signatures, one resembling a signature extracted from a human cancer harboring a mutation of the same amino acid residue in ribonucleotide reductase, RRM1Y285C. Our findings suggest that mutations in enzymes involved in dNTP metabolism can serve as drivers of cancer development.
期刊介绍:
Nucleic Acids Research (NAR) is a scientific journal that publishes research on various aspects of nucleic acids and proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism and interactions. It covers areas such as chemistry and synthetic biology, computational biology, gene regulation, chromatin and epigenetics, genome integrity, repair and replication, genomics, molecular biology, nucleic acid enzymes, RNA, and structural biology. The journal also includes a Survey and Summary section for brief reviews. Additionally, each year, the first issue is dedicated to biological databases, and an issue in July focuses on web-based software resources for the biological community. Nucleic Acids Research is indexed by several services including Abstracts on Hygiene and Communicable Diseases, Animal Breeding Abstracts, Agricultural Engineering Abstracts, Agbiotech News and Information, BIOSIS Previews, CAB Abstracts, and EMBASE.
