Crystal Structure of a Photolyase Bound to a CPD-Like DNA Lesion After in Situ Repair
Alexandra Mees,Tobias Klar,Petra Gnau,Ulrich Hennecke,André P. M. Eker,Thomas Carell,Lars-Oliver Essen +6 more
TL;DR: The crystal structure of a DNA photolyase bound to duplex DNA that is bent by 50° and comprises a synthetic CPD lesion that apparently mimics a structural substate during light-driven DNA repair in which back-flipping of the thymines into duplexDNA has not yet taken place is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light-driven DNA repair by photolyases
Lars-Oliver Essen,Tobias Klar +1 more
TL;DR: The potential of DNA photolyases for the generation of highly UV-resistant organisms, or for skin cancer prevention by ectopical application is increasingly recognized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recognition and Repair of Uv Lesions in Loop Structures of Duplex DNA by Dash-Type Cryptochrome.
Richard Pokorny,Tobias Klar,Ulrich Hennecke,Thomas Carell,Alfred Batschauer,Lars-Oliver Essen +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the crystal structure of Arabidopsis cryptochrome 3 with an in-situ-repaired cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) substrate in single-stranded DNA was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cryptochrome 3 from Arabidopsis thaliana: Structural and Functional Analysis of its Complex with a Folate Light Antenna
TL;DR: Spectroscopic studies on a mutant where a residue crucial for MTHF-binding, E149, was replaced by site-directed mutagenesis demonstrate that M THF acts in cryptochrome 3 as a functional antenna for the photoreduction of FAD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural and Non-natural Antenna Chromophores in the DNA Photolyase from Thermus Thermophilus
Tobias Klar,Gebhard Kaiser,Ulrich Hennecke,Thomas Carell,Alfred Batschauer,Lars-Oliver Essen +5 more
TL;DR: The facile incorporation of the flavin cofactors 8‐hydroxy‐deazariboflavin and 8‐iodo‐8‐demethyl‐rib oflavin into the binding site for the antenna chromophore paves the way for wavelength‐tuning of the activity spectra of DNA photolyases by using synthetic flavins.
