Structural highlights
DiseaseXPA_HUMAN Defects in XPA are a cause of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XP-A) [MIM:278700; also known as xeroderma pigmentosum type 1 (XP1). XP-A is a rare human autosomal recessive disease characterized by solar sensitivity, high predisposition for developing cancers on areas exposed to sunlight and, in some cases, neurological abnormalities. Group A patients show the most severe skin symptoms and progressive neurological disorders.[1] [2] [3] FunctionXPA_HUMAN Involved in DNA excision repair. Initiates repair by binding to damaged sites with various affinities, depending on the photoproduct and the transcriptional state of the region. Required for UV-induced CHEK1 phosphorylation and the recruitment of CEP164 to cyclobutane pyrimidine dimmers (CPD), sites of DNA damage after UV irradiation.[4] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.
