摘要: HUMANS with a defect in the XPG protein suffer from xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) resulting an inability to perform DNA nucleotide excision repair properly1–4. Here we show that makes structure-specific endonucleolytic incision synthetic substrate containing duplex region and single-stranded arms. One strand of is cleaved at border DNA. A cut same polarity also made bubble structure, 3′ side centrally unpaired region. Normal cell extracts introduce nick platinum – lesion, but XP-G extract defective making this incision. These data has direct role one incisions required excise damaged oligonucleotide, by cleaving 3' damage during repair.
