Target Information

Xeroderma pigmentosum type G (XPG) is a human genetic disease exhibiting extreme sensitivity to sunlight. The XPG protein, a member of the flap endonuclease 1 (FEN-1) structure-specific DNA repair endonuclease family, is an enzyme essential for DNA repair of the major kinds of solar ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damages. Human XPG nuclease makes the 3` incision during nucleotide excision repair of DNA. The enzyme cleaves model DNA bubble structures specifically near the junction of unpaired DNA with a duplex region. A 29-amino acid region of human XPG (residues 981-1009) contains the PCNA binding activity. A conserved arginine in XPG (Arg992) is crucial for its PCNA binding activity. Replication Protein A (RPA) binds specifically and directly to two excision repair proteins, the xeroderma pigmentosum damage-recognition protein XPA and the endonuclease XPG.
