Description

2-Amino-1-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) is a heterocyclic amine that can be found in cooked meat. It has been shown to have genotoxic effects in animals and mammalian cells, as well as genotoxic effects in the bacterial model organism, typhimurium. 2-Amino-1-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline is structurally similar to nitroarenes, which are known to be reactive and genotoxic. The chemical reacts with DNA bases and forms adducts; these adducts can lead to mutations or cell death. IQ has been shown to cause mutations at the thymidine kinase locus of DNA and is mutagenic.
