Bifurcating electron-transfer pathways in DNA photolyases determine the repair quantum yield

Photolyase is a blue-light-activated enzyme that repairs ultraviolet-induced DNA damage that occurs in the form of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and pyrimidine-pyrimidone (6-4) photoproducts. Previous studies on microbial photolyases have revealed an electrontunneling pathway that is critical...
