- 1 June 1991
Comparison of cellular responses associated with photoenhanced repair and nucleotide excision (“dark”) repair indicated that light‐mediated correction of UV damage was an important factor in cell survival, and a general dependence of photoproduct induction and D37 values on cell size and shape was indicated.

It is suggested that increased solar UV may reduce recruitment and adversely affect trophic transfer of productivity by affecting heterotrophic species as well as primary producers.

The data reviewed in this article support the notion that the (6-4) photoproduct and its Dewar photoisomer are important cytotoxic determinants of UV light.

It is shown that bacteria are more susceptible to UV-B damage and may be as a more sensitive indicator of UV stress than other microorganisms, and wave action and mixing strongly influence the effects ofUV-B in surface waters, demonstl-ating that UV- B effects may not always be predictable from measures of UV radiatio~ attenuation.

The results revealed that there are wide variations in marine bacteria in their responses to UV radiation and subsequent repair strategies, suggesting that UV-B radiation may affect the microbial community structure in surface water.
THE RELATIVE CYTOTOXICITY OF(6–4) PHOTOPRODUCTS AND CYCLOBUTANE DIMERS IN MAMMALIAN CELLS *

- 1 July 1988
Photochemical data indicate that the pyrimidine(6‐4)pyrimidone photoproduct is induced at a substantial frequency compared to the cyclobutane dimer and that the action spectra for the induction of both lesions are equivalent.
A UV-sensitive mutant of Arabidopsis defective in the repair of pyrimidine-pyrimidinone(6-4) dimers.

In wild-type seedlings, repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers occurred more slowly in the dark than in the light; repair of this photoproduct was not affected in the mutant.
