A UV-specific endonucleolytic activity present in human cell extracts

Abstract

An endonucleolytic activity specific for UV-irradiated DNA has been detected in extracts of human cells, both normal and defective in the repair of UV-damage. The activity is apparently recognizing a UV-induced damage other than pyrimidine dimers.
