We present here the first mass spectroscopic (MS) identification of the main tamoxifen-induced DNA adducts in rat liver. The two main adducts were isolated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and identified by MS, MS–MS and ultraviolet spectroscopy. Adduct 1 was the N-desmethyltamoxifen–deoxyguanosine adduct in which the 
-position of the metabolite N-desmethyltamoxifen is linked covalently to the amino group of deoxyguanosine. Adduct 2 was confirmed to be the trans isomer of -(N2-deoxyguanosinyl)tamoxifen, as previously suggested by co-chromatography.
Abbreviations: dGMP, deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate; HPLC, high-performance liquid chromatography; MS, mass spectroscopy; NP1, nuclease P1.
