Studies of DNA repair by Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers
Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) are the major photo products that can occur in DNA after UV-light exposure. Detrimental effects of CPDs for organisms can be prevented by the DNA repair enzyme DNA photolyase. This protein repairs CPDs by a light induced (300–500 nm) electron transfer i...
