Expression of Oxidative Stress Genes soxS and katG and SOS Response Genes recA and colD in Escherichia coli, Induced by 8-Methoxypsoralen and Ultraviolet (365 nm)
It was established that when irradiated with UVA, 8-MOP induces the formation of superoxide anion and peroxide in the cells of pSoxS-lux and pKatG-lux biosensors, respectively and the dynamics of biosensor responses differed significantly, which indicates the activation sequence of the corresponding promoters.
