Summary[edit]
DescriptionDirect DNA damage.png |
English: Direct DNA damage: The UV-photon is directly absorbed by the DNA (left). One of the possible reactions from the excited state is the formation of a thymine-thymine cyclobutane dimer (right). The direct DNA damage leads to sunburn and it causes an increase in melanin production. Thereby it leads to a long-lasting tan. Note: please be aware these are not thymine bases, they are uracil (RNA equivalent) and as such are missing the 5-methyl group (cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thymine) |

This biology image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with
{{vector version available|new image name}} .
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Direct DNA damage.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter. |
