title: Ultraviolet light-induction and photoreactivation of thymine dimers in a cyanobacterium, Anacystis nidulans.
abstract: Partially photoreactivable mutant of Anacystis nidulans demonstrates partial photorepair of thymine dimers. The wild type which is completely photoreactivable at the conditions studied shows higher level of thymine dimer photolysis.
