Reaction rate calculated from 1) total cyclopyrimidine yield (0.3/10^8 DA/J/m^2 [PUB_0480]), 2) cyclopyrimidine dimers 80% UV-B induced dimers, 6,4-photoproducts and dewar products 20%, 3-4% other [PUB_0492] 3) 305 DA/nt (assumes GC content 31.68%), 4) relative yields of cyclopyrimidine dimers CC: 3%, TC: 16%, CT: 13%, TT: 68% [PUB_0490, PUB_0491], 4) relative yield fo 6,4 photoproducts: TT: 66/40, CT: 10/110, TC: 34/110, CC: 0/110 [PUB_0493], 5) 6,4-photoproducts rapidly isomerize to dewar products. |
