Metabolism of Mycosporine-Glutamicol in the Lichen <i>Cladonia arbuscula</i> subsp. <i>squarrosa</i> under Seasonal Changes and Elevated Exposure to UV-B or PAR Irradiation

Metabolism of Mycosporine-Glutamicol in the Lichen <i>Cladonia arbuscula</i> subsp. <i>squarrosa</i> under Seasonal Changes and Elevated Exposure to UV-B or PAR Irradiation

<i>Cladonia arbuscula</i> in its environmental niches is regularly affected by daily and annual variations in solar radiation. Mycosporine-glutamicol, Myc-Glu(OH), which it synthesizes, may act as a significant cellular UV-protector. Therefore, we studied this compound concentration in l...
