XPF

Protein FULL name:

DNA repair endonuclease XPF, DNA excision repair protein ERCC-4, DNA repair protein complementing XP-F cells, Xeroderma pigmentosum group F-complementing protein.,


Protein SHORT name:

XPF, XP-F, ERCC4, ERCC-4


XPF (Homo sapiens) is product of expression of ERCC4 gene.


XPF is involved in:

NHEJ in Homo sapiens
     
NER in Homo sapiens
     





FUNCTION: Structure-specific DNA repair endonuclease responsible for the 5-prime incision during DNA repair. Involved in homologous recombination that assists in removing interstrand cross-link.

COFACTOR: Magnesium.

SUBUNIT: Heterodimer composed of ERCC1 and XPF/ERCC4. Interacts with EME1. Interacts with BTBD12/SLX4; this interaction is direct and links the ERCC1-XPF/ERCC1 complex to SLX4, which may coordinate the action of the structure-specific endonuclease during DNA repair.

INTERACTION: Q8IY92:BTBD12; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-2370770, EBI-2370740;

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Probable).

DISEASE: Defects in ERCC4 are the cause of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group F (XP-F) [MIM:278760]; also known as xeroderma pigmentosum VI (XP6). XP-F is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by hypersensitivity of the skin to sunlight followed by high incidence of skin cancer and frequent neurologic abnormalities.

DISEASE: Defects in ERCC4 are a cause of XFE progeroid syndrome [MIM:610965]. This syndrome is illustrated by one patient who presented with dwarfism, cachexia and microcephaly.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the XPF family.

SIMILARITY: Contains 1 ERCC4 domain.
