Absorption of solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation by DNA leads to the formation of the highly
mutagenic cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD). The mutagenicity of CPD is caused, in part …

Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and pyrimidine (6-4) pyrimidone photoproducts (6-
4PPs) are the two main classes of mutagenic DNA damages induced by UVB radiation …

Classically, the nucleotide excision repair (NER) of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) is
a lengthy process (t 1/2> 48 h). Using the T4 endonuclease V-modified comet assay, we …

Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation induces helix distorting photolesions such as cyclobutane
pyrimidine dimers (CPD) and pyrimidine-pyrimidone (6-4) photoproducts (6-4PP) which …

Absorption of UV rays by DNA generates the formation of mutagenic cyclobutane pyrimidine
dimers (CPD) and pyrimidine (6–4) pyrimidone photoproducts (6-4PP). These damages are …

UV‐induced formation of pyrimidine dimers in DNA is a major deleterious event in both
eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Accumulation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers and …

Mutagenic and carcinogenic UV‐B radiation is known to damage DNA mostly through the
formation of bipyrimidine photoproducts, including cyclobutane dimers (CPD) and (6‐4) …

UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) are removed with accelerated speed
from the transcribed strand of expressed genes in cultured mammalian cells by a process …

Exposure to solar UVB radiation can lead to the formation of DNA lesions such as
cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs). Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is critical for the …

Background: DNA is the main cellular chromophore for ultraviolet B (UVB). Its absorption
leads to the generation of typical photoproducts. The most frequent types (about 80%) are …
