Facile preparation of a fluorescent probe to detect the cellular ability of nucleotide excision repair
2017
Abstract We previously developed a method to detect the cellular ability of nucleotide excision repair, which functions to remove UV-induced lesions in DNA, using a plasmid-type fluorescent probe. A drawback to the popular use of this method was that the oligonucleotide containing the (6–4) photoproduct, which was used as a primer in the plasmid preparation, must be synthesized chemically. In this study, we prepared the probe using a post-synthetically UV-irradiated oligonucleotide as the primer. Transfection of cells demonstrated that this probe detected the repair ability of the cells in the same manner as the original probe.
