Human 8-oxo-Guanine DNA Glycosylase (hOGG1)

Spontaneous oxidation of guanine residues in DNA generates 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). By mispairing with adenine during replication, 8-oxoG gives rise to G/C to T/A transversions, a frequent somatic mutation in human cancers. The enzyme, human 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (hOGG1), recognizes 8-oxoG/C, FaPy/C, and to a lesser extent, 8-oxoG/T base pairs, catalyzing the removal of the 8-oxoG and cleavage of the DNA phosphodiester bond through Schiff base chemistry. Mutations in the hOGG1 gene have been reported in a small but significant number of transformed cells and tumors. One mutation, R154H, converts hOGG1 to a promutator by broadening the specificity of the enzyme for the base opposite 8-oxoG.

Source: Purified from E. coli containing a recombinant plasmid harboring the hOGG1 gene.
 
Unit Definition: One Unit cleaves 1 pmole of a labeled oligonucleotide probe containing 8-oxoG base paired with C within a duplex oligo.
 
Assay Conditions: 1X REC Buffer 6 (20 mM Tris-Cl (pH 8.0), 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 100 µg/ml BSA), 4 pmoles of labeled 8-oxo-dG oligonucleotide annealed to the compliment oligonucleotide, and serial dilutions of enzyme in a reaction volume of 20 μl are incubated for 1 hour at 37°C. For analysis, 20 µl of 2X Loading Buffer (20 mM EDTA, 95% formamide, and 0.13% bromophenol blue) are added, the samples are heated to 95°C for 10 min then fast cooled to 4°C, and the cleavage products are resolved by 20% denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and percent cleavage quantified.
 
Applications:
  • Detection of oxidative DNA damage
  • hOGG1 FLARE Assay
  •  
    Storage: Store in working aliquots at -20∞C in a manual defrost freezer to avoid repeated freeze-thaws. The enzyme is supplied in 20 mM Tris-Cl (pH7.8), 1 mM EDTA, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 50% glycerol.
