ERCC4

excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 4

On chromosome: 16p13.12
Known also as: XPF; RAD1; ERCC11;


NCBI Gene ID: 2072
NCBI Ensembl Id: ENSG00000175595
MIM Id: (from NCBI OMIM database) 133520
Species: Homo sapiens

The protein encoded by this gene forms a complex with ERCC1 and is involved in the 5' incision made during nucleotide excision repair. This complex is a structure specific DNA repair endonuclease that interacts with EME1. Defects in this gene are a cause of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group F (XP-F), or xeroderma pigmentosum VI (XP6).
