From an X-irradiated human B-lymphoblastoid cell line (CCRF-SB), we have isolated a unique mutant clone (CCRF-SB-T1) which reveals high frequencies of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and chromosomal fragilities in the C-band regions of chromosomes Nos. 1, 9 and 16, when exposed to high concentrations of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU). A clear BrdU dose-dependent increase of SCEs (9.6 SCEs/cell at 0.05 mM, 40 SCEs/cell at 0.37 mM on average) in this mutant was observed. Relative contributions of nucleoside and a thymidine (dT) analog of BrdU to high SCEs were studied, since an unusual SCE response to BrdU led us to suspect the significance of BrdU incorporation into DNA and dT pool disturbances. Addition of deoxycytidine (dC), dT or both dC and dT causes an increase of SCEs. On the other hand, deoxyadenosine (dA) and deoxyguanosine (dG) did not have significant effects on SCEs in SB-T1 cells. These results suggest that disturbances of pyrimidine-nucleotide synthesis, including gross imbalance of nucleotide pools, play a pivotal role in the high SCE induction of SB-T1 cells by BrdU.
