Synergistic modulation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer photoproduct formation and deamination at a T(m)CG site over a full helical DNA turn in a nucleosome core particle

Sunlight-induced C to T mutation hotspots in skin cancers occur primarily at methylated CpG sites that coincide with sites of UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) formation. The C or 5-methyl-C in CPDs are not stable and deaminate to U and T, respectively, which leads to the insertion of A...
