UV MUTAGENIC PHOTOPRODUCTS IN Escherichia coli AND HUMAN CELLS: A MOLECULAR GENETICS PERSPECTIVE ON HUMAN SKIN CANCER*
Abstract
Abstract— The relevance of photoproducts produced by 254 nm irradiation to human skin cancer is first critically evaluated. Experiments identifying the mutagenic photoproducts at 254 nm are then described. Mutations are primarily due to the(6–4) photoproduct and the cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer, both in E. coli and in human cells. The(6–4) photoproduct may be more important in E. coli and the cyclobutane dimer more important in mammalian cells. In human cells, mutations occur at the C of a TC, CT, or CC cyclobutane dimer, but not at TT cyclobutane dimers, and also appear to occur, less frequently, at the C of TC and CC(6–4) photoproducts. The local structure of DNA is more important in determining the frequency of mutation at a site than is the photoproduct frequency at that site. The effect of DNA structure appears to be due to site‐specific lethality.

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.
