A recently derived in vitro chemiluminescence assay (Salles et al. [1995]
Anal. Biochem., 232, 37-42) has been used to investigate the effects of a
panel of twenty-two anticancer drugs and certain antibiotics on the
excision repair activity of cell-free extracts from the human cell line,
HeLa. This methodology, termed the 3D (Damaged DNA Detection) assay, based
on the in vitro excision repair assay previously developed (Wood et al.
[1988] Cell, 53, 97-106) has provided data indicating definite in vitro
inhibition of DNA repair by actinomycin D, aphidicolin, doxorubicin,
distamycin A and mithramycin A. This assay therefore offers the potential
for identifying agents with the ability to inhibit DNA repair.
