A (photo)sensitive subject: Combined agarose gel electrophoresis and photochemical studies show that 5-methyl-2-pyrimidone (see picture), the main chromophore of (6-4) photoproducts, behaves as a DNA photosensitizer. These results raise the question of whether the (6-4) lesions can act as Trojan horses, enhancing cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) formation and oxidative damage. Copyright
