Base Pairing Enhances Fluorescence and Favors Cyclobutane Dimer Formation Induced upon Absorption of UVA Radiation by DNA
Open accessAbstract
The photochemical properties of the DNA duplex (dA)(20)·(dT)(20) are compared with those of the parent single strands. It is shown that base pairing increases the probability of absorbing UVA photons, probably due to the formation of charge-transfer states. UVA excitation induces fluorescence peaking at ∼420 nm and decaying on the nanosecond time scale. The fluorescence quantum yield, the fluorescence lifetime, and the quantum yield for cyclobutane dimer formation increase upon base pairing. Such behavior contrasts with that of the UVC-induced processes.

Absorption of UVA photons by DNA is well documented and is driven by stacking of bases in the double helix.
“It may be added, although being a much lower process than in the UVC and UVB ranges, that absorption of UVA photons by DNA is a well-documented fact (94) that was recently shown to be driven by the stacking of bases in the double helix (95,96).”

Singlet excited states arising from initial UVA photon absorption have a marked charge-transfer character and differ from those induced by UVB.
“The singlet excited states arising from initial UVA photon absorption that are characterized by a marked charge transfer state appear to be quite different from those induced by UVB irradiation (95).”

DNA absorbs only slightly in the lower UVA range up to 340 nm, leading mostly to cis-syn T<>T through delocalization of excited-state transients over several nucleobases.
“As already mentioned, DNA only absorbs slightly in the lower part of the UVA range of solar radiation up to 340 nm, leading mostly to the formation of cis-syn T<>T through delocalization of excited state transients on several nucleobases (95,96).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
