Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications Ultraviolet Light-induced Recombination
Stimulation of recombination by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation was discovered by Jacob and Wollmanl using the phage a. Subsequently recombination in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms has been shown to be stimulated by W light and other agents acting on DNA. A close relationship between the repair of damaged DNA and recombination was established directly by the isolation of ret mutants of ...
متن کاملVisualization of novel simian virus 40 DNA recombination intermediates induced by ultraviolet light irradiation.
Electron microscopic technique was used to examine the structures of SV40 DNA recombination intermediates induced by ultraviolet irradiation as an approach for understanding recombination mechanisms in animal cells. Putative recombination intermediate with the characteristic Holliday junction was observed in both SV40 and CV-1 monkey kidney cell DNA. These results suggest that Holliday recombin...
متن کاملUltraviolet light induced alteration to the skin.
Solar light is the primary source of UV radiation for all living systems. UV photons can mediate damage through two different mechanisms, either by direct absorption of UV via cellular chromophores, resulting in excited states formation and subsequent chemical reaction, or by phosensitization mechanisms, where the UV light is absorbed by endogenous (or exogenous) sensitizers that are excited an...
متن کاملEnhanced experimental metastasis of ultraviolet light-induced fibrosarcomas in ultraviolet light-irradiated syngeneic mice.
Some ultraviolet light (UV)-induced fibrosarcomas produce more experimental pulmonary tumor colonies in UV-irradiated hosts than in normal syngeneic recipients. The number of experimental metastases produced following i.v. injection of these tumors increases in proportion to the dose of UV radiation. This enhancement can be transferred with lymphoid cells to lethally X-irradiated recipients and...
متن کاملUltraviolet Light
Ultraviolet light (UV) is a recognized disinfection alternative to chlorine and ozone in many applications from drinking water to wastewater treatment. UV provides effective disinfection without production of problematic disinfection byproducts. Information on the mechanism and application of UV for drinking water disinfection is presented. Advantages and disadvantages of the technique are disc...
