Abstract: Photosynthetic organisms are continuously exposed to solar ultraviolet radiation-B (UV-B) because of their autotrophic lifestyle. UV-B provokes DNA damage, such as cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) or pyrimidine (6-4) pyrimidone photoproducts (6-4 PPs). The cryptochrome/photolyase family… read more here.
