Alkylating chemotherapeutic drugs from the triazene group, dacarbazine (Braybrook et al. 2000), temozolomide (Deans and Tisdale 1992), and streptozocin (streptozotocin) (Bennett and Pegg 1981 - study was performed in rats), and probably procarbazine, produce 3-metyladenine adducts on DNA (3meA-dsDNA) (reviewed by Fu et al. 2012).
