Abstract excerpt

The photobiological effects of two monofunctional pyridopsoralens (PPs), pyrido[3,4-c]psoralen and pyrido[3,4-c]-7-methylpsoralen were studied and compared to those of 3-carbethoxypsoralen (3-CPs) and 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) in a haploid wild-type strain of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The...
