Scientific Background

Target data Single-stranded structure-specific DNA endonuclease involved in DNA excision repair (PubMed : 32522879, PubMed : 32821917, PubMed : 7651464, PubMed : 8078765, PubMed : 8090225, PubMed : 8206890). Makes the 3'incision in DNA nucleotide excision repair (NER) (PubMed : 32522879, PubMed : 32821917, PubMed : 8078765, PubMed : 8090225). Binds and bends DNA repair bubble substrate and breaks base stacking at the single-strand/double-strand DNA junction of the DNA bubble (PubMed : 32522879). Plays a role in base excision repair (BER) by promoting the binding of DNA glycosylase NTHL1 to its substrate and increasing NTHL1 catalytic activity that removes oxidized pyrimidines from DNA (PubMed : 9927729). Involved in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TCR) which allows RNA polymerase II-blocking lesions to be rapidly removed from the transcribed strand of active genes (PubMed : 16246722). Functions during the initial step of TCR in cooperation with ERCC6/CSB to recognized stalled RNA polymerase II (PubMed : 16246722). Also, stimulates ERCC6/CSB binding to the DNA repair bubble and ERCC6/CSB ATPase activity (PubMed : 16246722). Required for DNA replication fork maintenance and preservation of genomic stability (PubMed : 26833090, PubMed : 32522879). Involved in homologous recombination repair (HRR) induced by DNA replication stress by recruiting RAD51, BRCA2, and PALB2 to the damaged DNA site (PubMed : 26833090). In TFIIH stimulates the 5'-3' helicase activity of XPD/ERCC2 and the DNA translocase activity of XPB/ERCC3 (PubMed : 31253769). During HRR, binds to the replication fork with high specificity and stabilizes it (PubMed : 32522879). Also, acts upstream of HRR, to promote the release of BRCA1 from DNA (PubMed : 26833090).
