, p. 62 - 72 (2000)
Cyclobutane uridine and thymidine dimers with cis-syn-structure are DNA lesions, which are efficiently repaired in many species by DNA photolyases. The essential step of the repair reaction is a light driven electron transfer from a reduced FAD cofactor (
Selective product amplification of thymine photodimer by recognition-directed supramolecular assistance
Skene,Berl, Volker,Risler, Helene,Khoury, Richard,Lehn, Jean-Marie
, p. 3652 - 3663 (2008/10/09)
Two symmetric ditopic supramolecular templates (1 and 2) each presenting two hydrogen bonding recognition subunits were synthesized. Each such subunit comprises the same donor and acceptor pattern, capable of binding a substrate molecule with complementar
