1-Methyladenine is a gonad maturation-promoting regulator. 1-Methyladenine is produced in testes and ovarian follicle cells of starfish under the induction of gonad-stimulating substance (GSS). 1-Methyladenine promotes starfish oocyte maturation and spawning, and modifies bases that regulate DNA structure. 1-Methyladenine converts T?A base pairs in double-stranded DNA into non-disruptive T (anti)?m1A (syn) Hoogsteen conformation. If this conformational base is not repaired in a timely manner, it transforms into cytotoxic DNA damage and blocks the replication process[1][2].
