Indirect-acting carcinogens are those that:

#Biochemistry
  1. chemically react with nitrogen and oxygen atoms in DNA.

  2. can modify bases in DNA so as to distort the normal pattern of base pairing.

  3. are mainly reactive electrophiles.

  4. generally unreactive, often water-insoluble compounds that can act as potent cancer inducers only after the introduction of electrophilic centers.
