Pyrimidine Dimers

• 

  Subject Areas on Research

  • A topical antioxidant solution containing vitamins C and E stabilized by ferulic acid provides protection for human skin against damage caused by ultraviolet irradiation. 
  • Accelerated deamination of cytosine residues in UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers leads to CC-->TT transitions. 
  • Correlation of UVC and UVB cytotoxicity with the induction of specific photoproducts in T-lymphocytes and fibroblasts from normal human donors. 
  • KIND1 Loss Sensitizes Keratinocytes to UV-Induced Inflammatory Response and DNA Damage. 
  • Reaction mechanism of human DNA repair excision nuclease. 
  • Recognition and repair of compound DNA lesions (base damage and mismatch) by human mismatch repair and excision repair systems. 
  • Structure and function of the UvrB protein. 
  • The other function of DNA photolyase: stimulation of excision repair of chemical damage to DNA. 
  • UV photoprotection by combination topical antioxidants vitamin C and vitamin E. 
  • UVA generates pyrimidine dimers in DNA directly.
