Abstract

The normally obtained photoreactivation (PhR) by continuous illumination raised three questions that could not be answered by the classical instrumental set-up:

  1. 1.

    How many molecules of the photoreactivating enzyme exist per cell?

  2. 2.

    What are the kinetics of PhR?

  3. 3.

    What is the action spectrum of PhR?
