Tetrahydrobiopterin Photooxidation: a Key Process in Vitiligo Phototherapy
The processes of the autooxidation and photooxidation of tetrahydrobiopterin (Н4Bip) (a coenzyme present in a three- to fivefold excess in vitiligo) were studied in the context of vitiligo pathology and treatment...

Evolution of Proteins of the DNA Photolyase/Cryptochrome Family
Proteins of the cryptochrome/DNA photolyase family (CPF) are phylogenetically related and structurally conserved flavoproteins that perform various functions. DNA photolyases repair DNA damage caused by UV-B r...

Isolation and Characterization of Water-Soluble Chromoproteins from Arthrospira platensis Cyanobacteria: C-Phycocyanin, Allophycocyanin, and Carotenoid- and Chlorophyll-Binding Proteins
A method using chromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl 650M was developed for the simultaneous extraction of water-soluble chromoproteins from Arthrospira platensis cyanobacteria cells. These chromoproteins were C-phyco...

Photobiochemistry of folates: A photochemical reduction of folic acid
Exposure of deaerated folic acid solutions containing an electron donor to UV radiation (310–390 nm, I = 0.4 W m−2) induced formation of dihydrofolic acid (DHFA), a photoexcitation which gave tetrahydrofolic acid...
