Structural Biology of DNA (6-4) Photoproducts Formed by Ultraviolet Radiation and Interactions with Their Binding Proteins

Exposure to the ultraviolet component of sunlight causes DNA damage, which subsequently leads to mutations, cellular transformation, and cell death. DNA photoproducts with (6-4) pyrimidine-pyrimidone adducts are more mutagenic than cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers. These lesions must be repaired becaus...
