The sequence specificity of the mitomycin C-DNA interaction was directly determined by using DNA sequencing techniques and by using 3'- or 5'-end-labeled DNA fragments of defined sequence as substrates. Mitomycin C reduced with sodium borohydride induced heat-labile sites in DNA preferentially at specific sequences. The heat-labile sites were induced most preferentially at the dinucleotide sequence G-T ( especially Pu G-T), which was determined by scanning autoradiograms with a microdensitometer after gel electrophoresis. DNA was cleaved at the 3' side of deoxyguanosines and of some deoxyadenosines by heat treatment. Oligonucleotides produced by heat treatment after reaction with reduced mitomycin C contained phosphoryl groups at the 5' termini. The 3' termini seemed not to have simple structures, judging from their electrophoretic mobilities. Oxygen radicals such as singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radical were possibly involved in the induction of heat-labile sites.
