Photoinduced cleavage of plasmid DNA in the presence of pterin

The photoinduced cleavage of plasmid DNA by UV -A light in the presence of pterin was investigated. Electrophoretic analysis of the irradiated plasmid pUCI8 in the presence of pterin showed that UV light of 350 nm induced the transformation of a significant proportion of the supercoiled plasmid to i...
