Most B cell cancers overexpress the enzyme activation-induced deaminase at high
levels and this enzyme converts cytosines in DNA to uracil. The constitutive
expression of this enzyme in these cells greatly increases the uracil content of
their genomes. We show here that these genomes also contain high levels of abasic
sites presumably created during the repair of uracils through base-excision
repair. We further show that three alkoxyamines with an alkyne functional group
covalently link to abasic sites in DNA and kill immortalized cell lines created
from B cell lymphomas, but not other cancers. They also do not kill normal B
cells. Treatment of cancer cells with one of these chemicals causes strand
breaks, and the sensitivity of the cells to this chemical depends on the ability
of the cells to go through the S phase. However, other alkoxyamines that also
link to abasic sites- but lack the alkyne functionality- do not kill cells from B
cell lymphomas. This shows that the ability of alkoxyamines to covalently link to
abasic sites is insufficient for their cytotoxicity and that the alkyne
functionality may play a role in it. These chemicals violate the commonly
accepted bioorthogonality of alkynes and are attractive prototypes for anti-B
cell cancer agents.
