The study of protein recruitment to laser-induced DNA lesions can be distorted by photoconversion of the DNA binding dye Hoechst [version 2; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]
A commonly used approach for assessing DNA repair factor recruitment in mammalian cells is to induce DNA damage with a laser in the UV or near UV range and follow the local increase of GFP-tagged proteins at the site of damage. Often these measurements are performed in the presence of the blue DNA d...
