DNA Repair by DNA: The UV1C DNAzyme Catalyzes Photoreactivation of Cyclobutane Thymine Dimers in DNA More Effectively than Their de Novo Formation

UV1C, a 42-nt DNA oligonucleotide, is a deoxyribozyme (DNAzyme) that optimally uses 305 nm wavelength light to catalyze photoreactivation of a cyclobutane thymine dimer placed within a gapped, unnatural DNA substrate, TDP. Herein we show that UV1C is also capable of photoreactivating thymine dimers...
