Time-resolved study of thymine dimer formation.
The formation of thymine dimers in the single-stranded oligonucleotide, (dT)20, is studied at room temperature by laser flash photolysis using 266 nm excitation. It is shown that the (6-4) adduct is formed within 4 ms via a reactive intermediate. The formation of cyclobutane dimers is faster than 200 ns. The overall quantum yield for the (6-4) formation is (3.7 +/- 0.3) x 10-3, and that of the ...

15 صفحه اولPhotocrosslinking of human telomeric G-quadruplex loops by anti cyclobutane thymine dimer formation.
The unusual structural forms of telomere DNA, which protect the ends of chromosomes during replication, may render it vulnerable to unprecedented photodamage, possibly involving nonadjacent bases that are made proximate by folding. The G-quadruplex for the human telomere sequence consisting of a repeating d(TTAGGG) is one unusual form. Tel22, d[AGGG(TTAGGG)(3)], forms a basket structure in the ...
متن کاملSite-specific effect of thymine dimer formation on dAn.dTn tract bending and its biological implications.
dAn.dTn sequences, otherwise known as A tracts, are hotspots for cis-syn thymine dimer formation and deletion mutations induced by UV light. Such A tracts are also known to bend DNA, suggesting that some biological effects of UV light might be related to the distinctive structure and properties of cis-syn dimer-containing A tracts. To investigate the effect of thymine dimer formation on A-tract...
متن کاملSequence-dependent thymine dimer formation and photoreversal rates in double-stranded DNA.
The kinetics of thymine-thymine cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (TT-CPD) formation was studied at 23 thymine-thymine base steps in two 247-base pair DNA sequences irradiated at 254 nm. Damage was assayed site-specifically and simultaneously on both the forward and reverse strands by detecting emission from distinguishable fluorescent labels at the 5'-termini of fragments cleaved at CPD sites by T4...
