Dynamics and Mechanism of Repair of UV-induced (6-4) Photoproduct by Photolyase
One of the detrimental effects of UV radiation on DNA is the formation of the (6-4) photoproduct (6-4PP) between two adjacent pyrimidines1. This lesion interferes with replication and transcription and may result in mutation and cell death2. In many organisms a flavoenzyme called photolyase uses blu...
