•Two or more lesions within 1 or 2 helical turns
•May contain– abasic sites
-oxidized bases
-strand breaks
•Hypothesized as repair-resistant, critical radiation damages(John Ward, Dudley Goodhead)

Quantifying DNA Damages: Number Average Length Analysis
# damages = # molecules+T - # molecules-T
• But we really want to know damage frequency: (damages/base or /kb or /Mbp or/Gbp)
φ (damages/base) = # molecules+T _ # molecules-Tbase base
Ln = average molecular length of DNA population(bases/molecule)
φ (damages/base) = 1/Ln+T - 1/Ln-T
-T, 1 molecule +T, 3 molecules

Quantifying DNA Damages: Pulsed field Gel Electrophoresis,Quantitative Electronic Imaging &Number Average Length Analysis
• No specific distribution of damages required
• No radiolabelling of DNA
• Uses nanograms of DNA per measurement
• Current sensitivity = 1-2 damages/ 109 base pairs (Gbp)

Conclusions• Radiation induces DSBs, OxyPyrimidine clusters,
OxyPurine clusters & Abasic clusters.
• Clusters are induced at very low radiation doses.
• Linear dose response for cluster induction.
• Single radiation ‘hits’ induce damage clusters.
![Page 17: Clustered DNA Damages Betsy Sutherland · Quantifying DNA Damages: Pulsed field Gel Electrophoresis, Quantitative Electronic Imaging & Number Average Length Analysis • No specific](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022053007/5f0b5aae7e708231d4301a3c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What factors affect cluster induction?
• Radiation dose determines cluster LEVELS.
• DNA environment affects cluster SPECTRUM.(ratio of cluster types)
• Other factors?
![Page 18: Clustered DNA Damages Betsy Sutherland · Quantifying DNA Damages: Pulsed field Gel Electrophoresis, Quantitative Electronic Imaging & Number Average Length Analysis • No specific](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022053007/5f0b5aae7e708231d4301a3c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Does Radiation Species Determine
• cluster yields?
• DNA damage spectrum?(relative levels of specific complex damages)
Where to find radiation of different LET, energy & Z?

Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR)
high energy protonshighly charged, energetic atomic nuclei
(HZE particles)
not effectively shielded (break up into lighter, more penetrating pieces)
abundances and energies quite well known
MAIN PROBLEM:
biological effects poorly understood
but known to be most significant space radiation hazard

• No endogenous clusters of any type

Expectation: Attempted Cluster Repair WouldProduce DSBs

Reality: What do repair-proficient cells do?

Experimental Design for Repair Studies
• Irradiate cells warm.
• Post-irradiate incubation at 37oC.
• Harvest at increasing times after irradiation.
• Isolate DNA, measure DSBs & clusters as usual.

• Few if any detectable de novo early DSBs.

If cells don’t produce DSBs in repairing clusters, WHAT do they do?

Conclusions• Cluster repair
– for repair-proficient cells, lower radiation doses:
– avoids DSB production.
– produces cluster intermediates.
