1-Methyladenine is a methylated adenine nucleotide and a product of alkylation damage in DNA[1-2]. 1-Methyladenine is used in research related to DNA damage and developmental biology[3-4].
In vitro, diploid yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae BZ34 (adenine auxotroph) was treated with 1-Methyladenine (20mg/L) for 24–48 hours. 1-Methyladenine completely inhibited cell growth, but did not cause cell death or induce cytotoxic or genotoxic effects[5]. Starfish oocytes were treated with 1-Methyladenine (1µM) for 3–10 minutes. 1-Methyladenine induced germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD). When starfish oocytes were co-treated with 1-Methyladenine and the calcium ionophore A23187 (20µM), the formation of the fertilization envelope was completely suppressed, and the oocyte’s ability to form a fertilization envelope in response to elevated calcium was blocked[6].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Diploid yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae BZ34 (adenine auxotroph) |
Preparation Method | Yeast cells from stationary phase culture were washed and resuspended in synthetic complete (SC) medium in which adenine was replaced by 1-Methyladenine (20mg/L). Cultures were incubated in a shaker water bath at 30°C. Growth was monitored at 24 and 48 hours. |
Reaction Conditions | 20mg/L; 24-48h |
Applications | 1-Methyladenine completely inhibited cell growth (without causing cell death) and did not induce cytotoxic or genotoxic effects, as measured by the frequency of gene conversion and reverse mutation. |
