Abstract excerpt
Photoreactive repair (PR) of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) was mapped at nucleotide resolution in nucleotide excision repair (NER) proficient and deficient strains for the transcriptionally active and inactive MFA2 gene. Enhanced PR in the control region occurred in areas where no nucleosomes were present, particularly linker regions in the alpha mating type. The presence of excision plus transcriptional...
