W A Saffran et al.
Mutation research, 274(1), 1-9 (1992-06-01)
Photoreaction with psoralen, a DNA-crosslinking reagent, induces mitotic recombination in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Psoralen damage-induced recombination was studied with non-replicating plasmids, which transform yeast cells by undergoing recombination events with chromosomal DNA. When plasmid DNA was photoreacted with psoralen

A method is reported for conjugating an analog of 4'-(aminomethyl)-4,5',8- trimethylpsoralen to methylphophonate oligonucleotides. This method enables the psoralen moiety to be coupled to the phosphonate backbone between any two desired bases in a sequence. When hybridized to a target
